I uploaded the comparison from a current default build with ftlk,
gnuplot and ML to http://tech-chat.de/compare_plot_demos/

The diary of each run can be found here:
www.tech-chat.de/compare_plot_demos/fltk/diary.log
www.tech-chat.de/compare_plot_demos/gnuplot/diary.log
www.tech-chat.de/compare_plot_demos/matlab/diary.log

I want to summarize some problems I've encountered:

* Insert "close all" before each plot to avoid triggering bug
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42612 for fltk and gnuplot

* Need to temporarly patch sombrero to be able to run it in ML because
default arguments:
-function [x, y, z] = sombrero (n = 41)
+function [x, y, z] = sombrero (n)
+  if (nargin == 0)
+    n = 41;
+  endif

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in axis_03: Error using axis (line 176)
Unknown command option ticx

  -> 'nolabel','ticx','ticy' seems to be octave only additions

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in axis_04: Error using plot
Error in color/linetype argument
  ->  adding legend keys with ";key;" is an octave only addition?

* axis_09,10,11,12 No, 'xaxislocation' 'zero', 'yaxislocation' in ML
(http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40588). Should be removed from demos or
blacklist axis_09 and other demos in dump.m script

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in datetick_02: Error using
  datetick>parseinputs (line 355) The axis must be 'x','y', or 'z'.

  Because datetick (2, 'keepticks'); is not valid in ML.
  I think this should be "datetick ('x', 'keepticks');"

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in legend_01: Error using handle.handle/set
Invalid or deleted object.

 This is our demo block:
  clf;
  plot (rand (2));
  title ('legend called with cellstr and string inputs for labels');
  h = legend ({'foo'}, 'bar');
  legend location northeastoutside
  set (h, 'fontsize', 20);

 -> I think we should change "legend location northeastoutside" to "set
(h, 'location', 'northeastoutside');"

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in legend_03: Error using plot
  Error in color/linetype argument

  x = 0:1;
  plot (x,x,';I am Blue;', x,2*x, x,3*x,';I am Red;');

  -> guess adding legend keys with ";key;" is a octave addition and not
supported in ML?

* matlab/diary.log: ERROR in legend_08: Error using handle.handle/set
  same as legend_01

Other ML error which I hadn't time to check yet:
