I did a "hg pull" to get your patch, which pulled also some other
patches, and now I can't compile Octave:

libtool: compile:  g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../libgnu -I../libgnu 
-I../libcruft/misc -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/include/freetype2 -Wall -W

I'll retry now after a "make clean", but this will take 30 minutes.

Also, FYI, since my first mail had not reached address@hidden after 1
hour, I had given the mail up and also filed a bug report (#32127).
