Details:

I built my own copy of Octave for Windows using MXE and the additional option
--disable-windows-64 since this is for a 32-bit Windows XP VM.

A valid installer file was created and Octave installs and seems to run just
fine.  However, gnuplot does not work.  It is listed as an
available_graphics_toolkit.  But when I try to switch to it, Octave complains
that the version is too old.

If I go into the directory C:\Octave\Octave-4.3.90\bin and run gnuplot.exe
directly then the OS complains that the dll d2d1.dll was not found.
