OK, I have uninstalled cvs and installed distro pkg which gets me a 
gnuplot-qt ( not wxt )

I do now have a non hidden title bar.

gnuplot-wx pkg gets me a wxt version built against wxGTK 2.8.x

  gnuplot-wx              x86_64              5.0.1-2.fc23   fedora 
          753 k
  wxBase                  x86_64              2.8.12-19.fc23   fedora 
            595 k
  wxGTK                   x86_64              2.8.12-19.fc23   fedora 
            3.1 M

That much works, none of the oddities I've reported here seem to be 
happening.

Will have a fresh go at a fresh configure  and build of CVS when I have 
some more time.

Thanks.
