OK. that step is done, and the resulting tarball builds okay on my Debian
system, but plplot-test.sh revealed a problem with at least one octave
example (which I have informed Joao about).  Also, there was a problem with
one python example which I have now fixed.  So if I exclude octave, all
postscript results build fine now.

So I will move forward with the next step (making rpm's on RH7.3) and
hopefully Joao will get the octave bug fix in shortly.
