As documented in the BTS I've forwarded the FTBFS to Sylwester Arabas
(the one of the GDL upstream devs I had most contact with) by e-mail
after I noticed them, but got no reply so far. He though opened an
issue at their tracker just an hour ago:
http://sourceforge.net/p/gnudatalanguage/bugs/594/

I'm happy if someone else would help keeping GDL in Debian in shape or
even wants to take over maintainership completely. We both, Gürkan and
me, only maintain GDL in Debian because we need it at work. We don't
use it ourselves.

(I though won't join a team to maintain GDL. So if debian-science or
debian-astro wants to take over, I won't join the team for that, they
need to take over the package completely.)

With regards to plplot: I reviewed it for sponsoring and there's a
package at https://mentors.debian.net/package/plplot -- it's mostly
fine with one exception, it should have version 5.9.10-1, not version
5.9.10-2. The older 5.9.10-1 package at the same location has more
issues and fixing them resulted in the 5.9.10-2 upload to mentors.
