Oops; the chmod on the symlink changes the permissions of the link 
target but not the link itself.  My bad.

I'm glad it's working.   _Most_ Fink packages can be built with just the 
Xcode CLI tools, but there are a few that are distributed in Xcode 
project format.  Aquaterm is one.

I've thought off and on about having a gnuplot option that doesn't use 
aquaterm, but life keeps getting in the way. :-)
