YES! An on Sun Solaris 2.5.1 too!
IMHO the trick is to have the correct GNU utilities installed.
In fact, this is what is stated in the INSTALL file that comes
with Octave. I rebuilt my entire GNU install tree (I don't
necessesarily recomend this) because the Redhat distribution
I had was based on a 1.0.x Kernel (I'm running 2.1.13). Once
you get the GNU install tree resolved (including libs).
It works greate.
