Funny.  This is perhaps the problem:  I checked out gnuplot with 
tortoisecvs without explicitly saying 'use UNIX line endings' i.e. \n only.

I also must state, that I identified this as the problem, because 
config.* had filenames containing ^M in it (i.e. \r).

Perhaps a note in the INSTALL could help other people to not fall into 
this pit...
