I have no idea what the protocol here is.  But, in any case, attached is
a new patch relative to maint.

Subject: [PATCH] allow gnuplot to generate plots in different directories

* lisp/ob-gnuplot.el (org-babel-expand-body:gnuplot) if the org buffer
  is associated with a file, direct gnuplot to change to the directory
  for that file.
