That is an interesting example. 
I do not recognize that set of patterns. 
What plot command is generating them?

In the 4.2 postscript terminal and associated terminals (epslatex, etc)
pattern definition has been moved into an external prologue file.
So if you want to experiment with new patterns, you can make a local
copy of the prologue and edit it as you please.  You do not have to
edit or rebuild gnuplot itself.  

The same could easily be done for the svg terminal, which refers to
patterns definitions via a URL.
