Well, you just can give a bogus positive z coordinate :

  set view map
  set log z
  set object 1 ellipse at 0.0,0.0,1 size 0.5,0.5,1 angle 0 front
  splot [-2:2][-2:2] x**2+y**2 notitle with lines

,  but the error (message) is of course nonsense. File a bug report
about it on https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/bugs ?
