Sounds good.

On the question of win-bash showstoppers, you commmented before

"cmake doesn't like sh.exe in the path if I use MinGW/CLI combination, I
have to rename it, run cmake, rename sh again to run the tests."

I have just had an idea about that.  I suggest you put the directory
where win-bash occurs last on your PATH.  For those platforms with an
official shell (MinGW/MSYS, Cygwin, etc.) you will always use that official
shell (which both cmake and plplot-test.sh are happy with) since that shell
will be higher on the PATH than win-bash.

Hope this idea helps.
