What does the copy of Octave you installed on MinGW tell you for the
following commands

  octave_config_info ("prefix")
  octave_config_info ("fcnfiledir")
  OCTAVE_HOME
  OCTAVE_VERSION

?

What do the same commands return if you add them to the .m file that
you are executing from your standalone program?
