ui_QtGnuplotSettings.h is not missing. It should be generated by the build 
system from the file QtGnuplotSettings.ui, using the uic program. The command 
for the generation of this file is located at lines 107 and 141 in 
gnuplot/src/Makefile.am
I am no Apple expert, so I cannot say what goes wrong with the generation of 
this file in mac os. A workaround would be to manually generate this file :

	cd gnuplot/src/qtterminal
	uic -o ui_QtGnuplotSettings QtGnuplotSettings.ui

the same goes for moc_* files.

If you can sort out these build system issues, I believe that the Qt terminal 
should work on Mac os without code changes.
