All, The configure.ac file is checking the g++ version twice which is unnecessary. In one case, it issues a warning if the version <= 3.0 and in the other it issues a warning if version <= 3.5. Which version should we keep?
Those tests were added a long time ago, originally to prevent people from going too far in attempts to compile Octave with GCC 1.x or other versions that clearly wouldn't work. Maybe now we could just remove the checks completely.
If you decide to leave them in, then I think it makes sense to just warn for versions earlier than 4.1.x.
