Package: gnuplot
Version: 4.0.0-2
Severity: normal

I have a few x 10,000 data lines like 

        9522 50 25 2005-04-20.13-18-58 99.5111 -2.63528 -0.587842 -0.037915
        13959 50 25 2005-05-25.23-04-23 104.8 -0.00523682 -0.0098999 -0.0324219

The fourth column is a date and time; the data span about four months.
If I say

        set cbdata time
        set timefmt "%Y-%m-%d.%H-%M-%S" 

        splot '' using 6:7:5:4 with points palette

then gnuplot complains, "cannot display empty color axis range."  But
if I follow this with 

        set zdata time
        splot '' using 6:7:4 with points palette

the (clearly nonempty) combined z/color axis displays correctly.
I can also successfully say both

        set cbdata
        splot '' using 6:7:4:1 with points palette
and
        set zdata
        splot '' using 6:7:5:1 with points palette

but these are not the data I want to plot.
