I confirm the problem. I built octave-2.1.39  with gcc-3.2 and options  
--enable-dl --enable-shared. When I tried to build plplot with octave by 
using gcc-3.2 the building breaks at compiling   plplot_octave.cc. Then
I made reconfigure with  "CXX=g++-2.95.3 ./configure ......".
 
Well, the compiling was ok after this except I cannot use this built to make 
rpm because of wrong parameters in  RPATH variable  (it was a wrong path 
which referee to the build dir and not to the path where octave module to be 
installed).
