I have a working binary package of gnuplot compiled with the latest cygwin at
the following address:
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Weichmann_Tom/1.2/

Remember that gnuplot is a X windows app.  Therefore you need to be running a
Xserver on your Windows box, and also have the X11R6 libs and clients installed
in your Cygwin environment.

There is a Win32 native gnuplot port that does not require a Xserver.  It (along
with some others) is located at ftp://ftp.dartmouth.edu/pub/gnuplot.  This
Win32 port was done with an old version of Cygwin though and has some problems
interacting with other applications, like Octave.  There is a simple work around
to make it work with Octave, but I have never tried it with anything else.
