Hi Mojca, and thanks for your quick (and detailed) reply,
I'm using debian sid with default ConTeXt, texlive, and gnuplot packages. Not trying to compile gnuplot myself is probably a matter of lazyness, as it should not be too difficult with debian packaging tools available. I guess the best solution for me is to try and test the 'context' terminal.
I don't know how to do it "the debian way", but an universal (less-Debian-like) way to recompile gnuplot it is to download gnuplot from sourceforge, add a line to include context terminal, and compile with ./configure make as described on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Gnuplot. I have PATH=.:~/bin:/usr/bin ... so I simply copy my own version of gnuplot under ~/bin/gnuplot and the rest of the system remains intact. You do not need to "destroy your system" to make it work.
