No.  It solves only half the problem, because it still writes the main
gnuplot executable to a directory shared by multiple architectures.  The
correct solution, if you want to base it on uname -i output, would be more
like this:

[if you're root:]
	./configure --exec-prefix=/usr/local/$(uname -i)
[otherwise:]
	./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME/$(uname -i)
