Some progress:

I have worked out how to patch the installation path into
maxima.bat using the InnoSetup scripting language.  (Actually
google found some example code that almost worked). I will
commit this when I get home.  

I have built a new installer, with gnuplot-4.0 binaries, and
it all seems to do the right thing.  To avoid confusion over
version numbers I won't upload this yet, but the changes will
be in beta2 if we have one.

I am not going to look at spaces in paths.  I have had enough
of PCs for a while - time to play with gfortran on irix and 
to crawl under the house and lay some network cable.
