I ran the conversion again using the same "reconvert" version (4 Nov)
but newer versions of reposurgeon/repotool (11 Nov).
That seems to make the difference.
I have pushed this hopefully final copy of the converted repository to
sf.net as

   git.code.sf.net/p/gnuplot/gnuplot-main

The previous attempt (gnuplot-trunk) is still there on sf.net for my
reference as I re-apply patches subsequent to its initial state.

Please use "gnuplot-main" as of now.
I will probably delete the older one tomorrow.
