This is a known libtool-1.4.x related problem with 5.2.1.  The solution was
for us to build our tarball with libtool-1.5.  At some point we will bring
out our next official release based on libtool-1.5, but meanwhile try a test
version of PLplot instead that has been built with libtool-1.5 and which is
located at http://people.debian.org/~rafael/plplot.html.  Others have had
good luck with our test versions and Mac OS X (and Cygwin as well which also
doesn't work for 5.2.1 because of libtool-1.4.x problems.).
