gnuplot-4.2 supports wxwidgets frontend optionally. This can be conntrolled by wxwindows use flag. But it takes no effect actually because configure gets --with/without-wxwidgets option instead of exptected --enable/disable-wxwindows. After that configure fallbacks into autodetection. (Accidentally, I have installed only wxGTK and USE=-wxwindows emerge gnuplot detects wx-config but crashes inside make on missing something.) Replacing use_with with use_enable on wxwindows condition in ebuild solves the problem for me. Reproducible: Always
