Comment (by mojca@…):

 Actually, I just realized that the patch is a tiny bit wrong. If `pdflib`
 is present, `gnuplot` still links against it unless one provides an
 explicit configure flag `--without-pdf`. At least that is what happens
 here.

 It is true though that if `pdflib` is absent or disabled, `set term pdf`
 switches to `pdfcairo` automatically. The real question now is whether
 anyone really needs `pdflib` when `pdfcairo` terminal is present.
