Details:


Recently I upgraded from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04, which brings the Octave from
3.6.4 to 3.8.1 and the gnuplot from 4.6.3 to 4.6.4. After the upgrade, the TeX
symbols in plots do not work correctly in the output files. 

Example code:

----

x=linspace(0,1,100);
plot(x,2*x);
title('\Pi');
print('testfig.ps','-dps2','-color');
pause;

----

The graph shown on the screen displays the Greek character "Pi" correctly, but
the output file "testfig.ps" only shows a string "Pi" in Roman characters.

Similar problem also occurs for "-deps" format, and also superscript and
subscript do not work.
