Actually, that's such an obvious improvement that I've now rebuilt 
my pkg and dmg with PREFIX set to

/Applications/Gnuplot.app/Contents/Resources

I think this means that if you install in the standard location you 
should be able to run gnuplot from the shell just my making a 
suitable symlink to the gnuplot binary at

/Applications/Gnuplot.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnuplot

If you install elsewhere it'll still be necessary to use my wrapper 
script to get the envionment right.
