octave-2.0.16: Failed to Compile

[Youngert]

Hi,

I just downloaded a copy of octave-2.0.16 and tried to compile it on my
AMD K6-2 400Mhz with SuSE-6.3 Linux distro to no avail.  The following
is the configuration output from octave-2.0.16:

+++++
 Octave is now configured for i386-ABiX-linux-gnu
 
  Source directory:     .
  Installation prefix:  /usr
  C compiler:           gcc  -mieee-fp -O2 -m486 -fno-strength-reduce

The compilation failed when trying to compile src/getrusage.cc with the
followign error:

+++++
  c++ -c  -fPIC -I. -I.. -I../liboctave -I../src -I../libcruft/misc 
-I../glob -I.
    es -g -O2 -Wall getrusage.cc -o pic/getrusage.o
    getrusage.cc: In function `class octave_value_list Fgetrusage(const
class octave_value_list &, int)':
    getrusage.cc:80: aggregate `struct rusage ru' has incomplete type
and cannot be initialized
    getrusage.cc:82: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
    make[2]: *** [pic/getrusage.o] Error 1
    make[2]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/packages/BUILD/octave-2.0.16/src'
    make[1]: *** [src] Error 2
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/octave-2.0.16'
    make: *** [all] Error 2

Does this happen to anyone?
