Just for a bit of clarification, PLplot's Subversion head does compile
on my 64bit Fedora 11 install.  I have tested and used it here.  This
is using Fedora-provided binaries for everything except PLplot itself
and OCaml (for the OCaml bindings), so I can not comment on the effect
of using user-provided alternate library versions.

I don't want any (potential) Fedora users out there to get the wrong
impression about PLplot's function in their distribution :-)  For
example, Fedora seems to have some of the most complete PLplot binary
packaging available in a Linux distribution.
