Surprisingly, it didn't crash. 840 tests passed, 1 failed, and the last output 
was "Program exited normally". Then "bt" output "No stack."

I don't know if this helps, but just running "./run-octave" in the build 
directory (..../octave-3.6.3) gives the segmentation fault. Deeper in the tree, 
in src/.libs, I find the two binaries octave and lt-octave. I don't know what 
the difference is. Doing ./octave outputs "error while loading shared libraries 
....." (see below) whereas doing ./lt-octave gives a segmentation fault.

When I run ldd on them, the output from ldd octave shows 3 octave related 
libraries "not found" and just a few of the expected libraries listed. From ldd 
lt-octave I get a big list of libraries, including the "not found" ones from 
ldd octave, and every library appears to be correct. Until today I was not able 
to compile to the point where all the libraries looked correct here. FWIW.
