@tex: Any idea what could be the problem here?

never seen that before; what version of texlive/pdftex are you using?

maybe related to:

could you please try with dev-tex/pdftex (and switch using eselect-pdftex),
i've heard of problems with largefile support and the dev-tex/pdftex ebuild
gives --disable-largefile at configure. And if it works better, adding
--disable-largefile to texlive-core econf line.

That works very well.

Edit the ebuild, rebuild texlive-core-2008 and then try building gnuplot again?

yep; and dont forget to switch back to tl pdftex too

If that indeed fixes the problem I'll disable lfs support in this release too;
it has been enabled by default upstream but caused problems on solaris and mac
os i think; i didn't know it broke on linux too (probably specific to hppa
though, but still should be disabled for everyone if this can cause such weird
problems) :/
It is still possible that i'm smoking too much and that the problem lies
somewhere else, but texlive's 2008 pdftex and dev-tex/pdftex should be almost
the same, differences being the use of poppler instead of libxpdf and lfs
support...

anyway, if dev-tex/pdftex works, it's not a gnuplot issue, reassigning to
myself

Yes, rebuilding texlive-core-2008 with --disable-largefile does do the trick.

thanks for testing; tl-core-2008-r1 has now largefile disabled
