As of revision 11696 I have disabled Perl/PDL examples in tests by default as a signal that Perl/PDL is a language that no longer completely supports PLplot.
The reason for this change is that the external PDL::Graphics::PLplot project is missing too much of the new PLplot functionality. For example, according to the Changes file at http://search.cpan.org/~dhunt/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.52, the last attempt to update the PDL::Graphics::PLplot to be consistent with new PLplot API was for PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.46 which was released more than two years ago. I would be happy to reinstate the Perl/PDL tests by default and also help a bit with the necessary Perl/PDL example propagation to obtain consistency with our C examples results once PDL::Graphics::PLplot has been updated to include the new PLplot API that has been developed over the last couple of years.
