Hello,

I suspect this is a Gnuplot problem. Try to execute directly the Gnuplot 
script generated by Maxima (maxout.gnuplot):

$ gnuplot -persist 'maxout.gnuplot'

(Note that if you have used a 'plot' command, perhaps you have to run

set_plot_option ([plot_format, gnuplot]);

and create 'maxout.gnuplot' again)


If yo get the same warning messages, something should be fixed in your 
local Gnuplot configuration.

Sorry, I don't have any idea on the Mac OS installation.
