Yes, but it requires a little stylesheet customization.
You can add this small template:

<xsl:template match="book" mode="for-menu-title">
  <xsl:text>PLplot</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

(I haven't yet tested this myself, I'll try to do when I get back home
this weekend.)

In all likelihood, I will also just make it the default, in the next
version of docbook2X, to use the "abbreviated" titles for the
directory entry.

Hope this helps, and if you need further clarification, please don't
hesitate to ask.
