I maintain a patch for gnuplot in octave-forge
(admin/Windows/msvc/libs/gnuplot-4.2.2.diff). I already posted a bug report
and a patch on the gnuplot patch system months ago. Up to now, nothing has
been integrated into the gnuplot source tree. If the gnuplot developers are
interested, they can still contact me.

The code should be compatible with MSVC and mingw. For cygwin, nothing
special should be needed and the regular Linux code should work OK.

I used pgnuplot, because this is the program the octave's configure script
is looking for under Windows platform.
