Thanks for the advice. On further poking around, it looks like the
problem was the install step, which failed because I didn't have javac
available. Re-configuring with --disable-java got round that, and GDL
now fails with can't open display when I try to use xwin, which is fair
comment since I'm doing this over a modem! Using the ps device instead
and then converting to png I get, from plot,[0,1], this:

which is a start. Go go GDL!
