So obviously they _are_ necessary.  For the given binary anyway.

Neither is it bloat, nor is it caused by dynamic linking.  It's caused 
by the new gnuplot using a whole lot more external libraries than 
earlier releases, to implement features those never had.  And given that 
we have 3 *.exe files that need the same libraries, it would be really 
quite wasteful to include them all in each of them by static linking.
