Okay, that worked for me.  I changed my version of drawnow.m to contain 
the following in open_gnuplot_stream:

    if (nargin == 3)
      fprintf (plot_stream, "set terminal %s\n;", term);
      fprintf (plot_stream, "set output \"%s\"\n;", file);
    elseif isempty(getenv("DISPLAY"))
      fprintf (plot_stream, "set terminal aqua %d\n",h);
    endif

This is suitable for OS X only.  It still works for gnuplot 4.2, though 
the newer version also supports:

        fprintf(plot_stream, "set terminal aqua title \"Figure %d\"\n", h);
