The message is quite strange.  What --prefix did you use to configure 
gnuplot?  That exact message as you show it can only happen if you 
configured with --prefix=usr/local, which would be a seriously bad idea.
The prefix has to be an absolute path, and you generally have to "make 
install" before the program actually works.
