Please see discussion and resolution on the gnuplot bug-tracker:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1839048&group_id=2055&atid=102055

In a nutshell:  
  It's Apple's fault.  Leopard ships with a broken libreadline.
  Quick fix:  Delete /usr/lib/libreadline.dylib  and run gnuplot's
./configure again
