 The reason why installing gnuplot 4.4.4 with +wxwidgetss fails for me is a
 bug in autotools used for preparing gnuplot's configure script. (I asked
 gnuplot developers to upgrade and they will hopefully use a newer version
 for next release.) After using the patch from #33596 I have no problem
 compiling with XCode 3.2 on 10.6 both clang and llvm-gcc-4.2, as well as
 on 10.7 and XCode 4.2.1 (again, both with clang and llvm-gcc-4.2). The
 only combination that fails is compiling with wxwidgets-devel and clang
 compiler, which is why I have used

 {{{
 if {[variant_isset wxwidgets_devel]} {
     # http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13565
     if {${configure.compiler} == "clang"} {
         configure.compiler llvm-gcc-4.2
     }
 }
 }}}

 In principle I can backport the patch for 4.6.0 to 4.4.4, but I see no
 compelling reason to do so unless somebody tells me to do it (that is: if
 upgrading to 4.6.0 is not feasible for one reason or the other). If anyone
 else would want to backport the patch, simply take a look at lines around
 "bool e = &s;" in configure script in
 [https://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/33596/gnuplot4_6_0-v2-cocoa.diff
 gnuplot4_6_0-v2-cocoa.diff]

 > Wx terminal is still useless unfortunately. Plotting works fine, but the
 color wheel keeps spinning, and the window won't react on clicks, so no
 interactive functions work. But that's another topic.

 Gnuplot 4.6.0 (#33596) solves that problem as well. So according to my
 knowledge, once patches from ticket #33596 are applied, this ticket could
 be closed as well.
