This may be the same issue as reported on the gnuplot issue tracker: https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/bugs/2456/
If so, it is due to a weird compiler error specific to Windows 10 and reported only for the gnuplot epslatex terminal. Other terminals and other Windows versions are not affected. Possible work-around: use set term cairolatex eps terminal instead of set term epslatex.
If you are not using epslatex + Windows 10, please add relevant version and OS information to the question.
