Hi Orion, all: I've just uploaded a new version of PDL-Graphics-PLplot to
CPAN (v 0.57) which incorporates some fixes recently merged in from the
the PDL source tree and also includes an improved plplot_library_tests.t.
This test now compiles and runs the C sources
from the plplot examples directory and compares them to the perl
equivalent output instead of using canned C output for comparison.
This is currently only tested on Linux/Ubuntu! The compiling of these C
sources may not work on Windows, for example.
Best Regards,
Doug Hunt

I'm wondering if this is a fatally flawed test setup in that the C example
comparisons are pre-generated and shipped with PDL-Graphics-PLplot. I

some small differences between Doug's machine and mine would account for
the
discrepancy. Does this seem correct?
To answer my own question, if I compile and run the x01c example on my system
I get the same as the perl output, but different then the shipped output. So
I think you need to have the test build the C output as well on the testing
machine.
