Though the build is "one button", i.e. you enter a (complicated) command line and just wait (since the whole stack is built - gcc, gtk+, ATLAS, wxWidgets, gnuplot - you name it), you have to _patiently_ _wait_ - it takes a lot of time - more than a day.
If you are still interested, I'll send the stuff off-list - it's open source (GPL + LGPL + Artistic License), and then, if you have problems, I'll try to help you.
I've been using the thing since octave-3.0.5 days (actually, since 2006), I build my infrastructure using it (including, for example clisp -> SBCL -> - maxima -> wxMaxima - for symbolic manipulations). I mean, I was interested in good quality myself.
Regards,
Sergei.
