Octave-3.6.3 compile error with SuiteSparse-4.0.2 on Zenwalk Snapshot.

Hello,

Compiling Octave-3.6.3 on Zenwalk Snapshot (a derivative of Slackware), with SuiteSparse 4.0.2 gave the following error:

/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc -O2 -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -pthread  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mieee-fp -Wall -W -Wshadow -Wformat -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wwrite-strings -Wcast-align -Wcast-qual -O2 -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -pthread -pthread -O2 -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -pthread -no-undefined   -o octave main.o liboctinterp.la ../liboctave/liboctave.la ../libcruft/libcruft.la  -lm

How to correct this? Thanks for your help.
