That would be an example of "unexpected side effects" :-)

I think the tic lengths are changing due to the changing aspect ratio
of the plot.  I see the same effect just by changing the window size
by dragging a corner with the mouse.

There does seem to be a difference between gnuplot 4 and gnuplot 5,
so the change/bug/quirk/whatever probably dates back a few years.
I'll have a look but I'm working on other things right now.
