Do the PLplot examples work? This is the recommended way to verify your 
PLplot install. Assuming that you did the default install, these should 
be located in /usr/local/share/plplotxxx/. In the examples folder there 
is a makefile that you'll have to run as root to compile the examples.

An alternative way to check is, in the directory where you compiled 
PLplot, type "ccmake". This will give you a list of all the PLplot build 
options. Near the top there should be an option called something like 
BUILD_TEST. If you turn this on & rebuild PLplot it should also compile 
the examples in the build tree.

My experience with PDL / PLplot on OS-X has been that I needed to edit 
Graphics/PLplot/Makefile.PL and/or the generated Makefile a little to 
get it to actually work. Could you send me the Makefile in 
PDL/Graphics/PLplot?
