colorbar, again

Exactly.  This is the same picture that I get.  Find it at
 <http://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/help-octave/2008-September/010899.html>

>OS version: 10.5.4
>Octave version: 3.0.2
>GNUPlot version: 4.0 patchlevel 0

For me:
>OS: Debian testing on amd64
>Octave: 3.0.1
>Gnuplot: 4.2.2

Nothing changes even after going to Gnuplot 4.2.3.
