The quick answer is tutor.c is unmaintained at the moment.  There have been
PLplot API changes, and tutor.c may well be a victim of that.  Try the
x??c.c examples (which are well-maintained) instead to start.

If you decide to dig deeper into tutor.c and find what is wrong with it (by
comparing with the x??c.c examples or looking at our detailed documentation
at http://plplot.sourceforge.net/docbook-manual/), then please send me a
patch, and I will make the appropriate change in our code base.
