	It is, just not on the main body of the Portfile:

platform darwin {
         depends_lib-append      lib:libaquaterm.1:aquaterm
}

	A limitation of our base tools is that deps added by 
platforms/variants are not reported, but surely are acted upon, so 
building gnuplot on a darwin system (99% the likelihood if you're using 
*mac*ports ;-) will definitely call AquaTerm in.

	To use it as the gnuplot terminal the env variables can be used (nice 
hint!), but also:

set terminal aqua

	at the gnuplot prompt. HTH!
