Forgive my error; any of these should prove useful:
-rw-r--r--   1 scotte   ee        210862 Sep  4 16:26 OCST-ss-980904.tar.gz
    (several .oct files are in here)
-rw-r--r--   1 scotte   ee       3415843 Sep  4 08:17 octave-2.1.7.3.tar.gz
    (look in src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/qz.cc from this temporary Octave patch; this is
    probably the best example, although the #include are slightly different from
    what's required for a .oct file)
-rw-r--r--   1 scotte   ee        328379 Sep 21 08:23 semidef-oct.tar.gz
    (Fortran called indirectly from C)

To call FORTRAN directly from a .cc file (source for .oct), you will need
to use the macros
    F77_FCN    (prototype for a FORTRAN function)
    F77_XFCN    (execute a FORTRAN function)
each of these are called by routines in the octave liboctave directory.
