Sorry, I wasn't sure what exactly to call it.  Let me give you an example:

octave:3> x = 0:10;
octave:4> y = x.^2;

      This is gnuplot version 4.0.  Please refer to the documentation
      for command syntax changes.  The old syntax will be accepted
      throughout the 4.0 series, but all save files use the new syntax.

I have never seen anything like this before; of course, I haven't 
usually used the development version.

It doesn't bother me too much that I might run into a few problems, but 
I figure the best way to fix the problems is to identify them when they 
come up...
