Sorry, it's a known bug.
In the CVS version you can say "set bars front", but I don't know of a
good work-around for version 4.2.   I suppose you could draw the whole 
plot twice using multiplot:
    set multiplot
    set style fill solid 1
    plot foo ...
    set style fill empty
    plot foo ...
    unset multiplot
[not tried; this may well have bad side-effects]
