I have tried to fix this in CVS.
The problem is that despite imposing a requirement that the program
calls XInitThreads, the wxt-config script doesn't actually add the 
corresponding required library to the dependency list.

So I have changed gnuplot's autoconfigure script to add -lX11
itself if it sees that the newer wxWidgets is being used.
I am a little uneasy that this may cause problems in the future
on platforms where wxWidgets using wayland or carbon rather
than X11, but I guess we'll find out.
