Then I reran make several times.

Octave successfully built.  Now choose from the following:

   ./run-octave    - to run in place to test before installing
   make check      - to run the tests
   make install    - to install (PREFIX=/usr/local)

   HG ID for this build is "e154d23b2fd1+"

But it looks much better this time.

Thanks for your support, Mike.
