I can think of no explanation for that. It is mystifying.
So far as I know, the only difference in compiling gnuplot.exe and wgnuplot.exe
is the environmental variable WGP_CONSOLE. Is that correct?
But I do not see any code in either parse.c and axis.c that depends on WGP_CONSOLE.
Do any of these work?
set yrange [*<5 : 15<*]
set yrange [*<(-5) : 5<*]
N = -5; set yrange [*<N : 5<*]

That is correct. The new range syntax is only for 4.5.

If it continues to be a problem then please open a tracker item.
But first let's see if anyone else has an idea what might be happening.
