What about octave? Did you build from source or install an RPM? In 
octave, what is the output of: 
disp(octave_config_info.canonical_host_type)? I'm guessing that it's 
i686-pc-linux-gnu. If that's the case, one thing you might try is go to 
/usr/libexec/octave/2.1.71/site/oct and do "mv i686-redhat-linux-gnu 
i686-pc-linux-gnu". I'm not completely sure, but that might fix the 
problem. On the other hand, the problem may be that the octave you 
installed was built using a different compiler version than the one used 
for octave forge, in which case you will need to remove everything and 
compile your own tools from scratch.
