Yeah, this sounds right. make install DESTDIR= is what we usually
use in the destroot phase.

I'm not sure why the gnuplot port overrides that, but I see that line
has been in the portfile forever (8 years) so it's quite possible that
it was important in some ancient version of gnuplot that didn't support
DESTDIR. 

If just removing the destroot.destdir line works, then great, we should
do that.
