I am afraid I don't know how to do that. If Pango and WX-Widgets are enabled
there are a couple of differing files:

(1) Files install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-no/opt/csw/bin/gnuplot and install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-yes/opt/csw/bin/gnuplot differ
(2) Files install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-no/opt/csw/libexec/gnuplot/4.4/gnuplot_x11 and install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-yes/opt/csw/libexec/gnuplot/4.4/gnuplot_x11 differ
(3) Files install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-no/opt/csw/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnuplot-gui.elc and install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-yes/opt/csw/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnuplot-gui.elc differ
(4) Files install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-no/opt/csw/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnuplot.elc and install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-yes/opt/csw/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnuplot.elc differ
(5) Files install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-no/opt/csw/share/gnuplot/4.4/gnuplot.gih and install-isa-sparcv8-wxwidgets-yes/opt/csw/share/gnuplot/4.4/gnuplot.gih differ

Here, (1) is easy and can just be renamed. Unfortunately this may invoke (2) which is a PITA
to modify in the sourcecode. (3) to (5) are docs only which include more functionality for
the wx-enabled version. I tend to do an alternative with the wx-disabled version as base and
allow a wx-enabled alternative with the 5 files above mentioned taking precedence. Ok?


Best regards
