Just tried that with fresh checkout including your recent docbook fix, and
there are still problems.

configure and make are okay, but in the installed examples directory
please try the following:

./plplot-test.sh --front-end=octave

error: plplot_octave' undefined near line 922 column 10
error: evaluating index expression near line 922, column 10
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 922, column 8
error: called from plgstrm'
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from figure' in file
/usr/local/plplot_at/share/plplot_octave/figure.m'

Apparently octavedir is set wrong for your new install location.
If I attempt to fix that problem in the local script file using
octavedir=/usr/local/plplot_at/lib/octave/site/oct/i386-pc-linux-gnu/:/usr/local/plplot_at/lib/plplot5.2.0/data/../examples/octave

then the following error results:

./plplot-test.sh --front-end=octave
error: plplot_stub' undefined near line 1 column 1
error: evaluating expression near line 1, column 1

I suspect an additional directory is needed for octavedir, but which one?
