I think you need a bit more than that, reverting also part of the
code simplification patch of 2010-10-12.
Slightly larger patch attached.

Could be :-)

Going back all the way to version 4.0, so about size years now,
I have totally failed to build a version of gnuplot that uses the
vga/vgagl/linux console terminal drivers for anything other than to
lock up my video card.  There must be some trick to configuring
things, but it has defeated me every time I'm attempted it.

Strangely, the vgagl driver doesn't give any hint in the code
or docs that it requires EXTENDED_COLOR_SPECS.  
It might be worth adding a configuration note somewhere.

Could you maybe provide a screenshot?
