Oh, but while on the topic of pgnuplot: some of your recent changes 
related to wredirect.c seem to have broken its build.  It now reports 
variations of

Error! E2028: MyPrintF_ is an undefined reference
Error! E2028: MyFPrintF_ is an undefined reference
Error! E2028: MyFGetS_ is an undefined reference
file pgnuplot.obj(c:\prg\gp\gnuplot\src\win\pgnuplot.c): undefined 
symbol MyPrintF_
file pgnuplot.obj(c:\prg\gp\gnuplot\src\win\pgnuplot.c): undefined 
symbol MyFPrintF_
file pgnuplot.obj(c:\prg\gp\gnuplot\src\win\pgnuplot.c): undefined 
symbol MyFGetS_

on all Windows compilers I tried. Building bf_test.exe fails similarly.

Oh, and OpenWatcom dislikes the redefinition of ETO_PDY in emf.trm. 
It's not used anywhere in gnuplot, and it conflicts with <wingdi.h>.

... and the build of the 4.6 branch is broken in fit.c for all platforms.
