My problems are more complicated. I get a window, but rather than  
containing the proper image/plot it contains pieces of other things on  
my screen (related to Fink I think). For the time being, I have no  
real interest in fixing that particular problem. Instead I'm looking  
at what can be done to improve the gnuplot backend and improving lower  
level support for the backend (property related stuff and soon  
listeners).
