I'm trying to compile/install Octave 2.0.9 on the following Linux
system:

  * Linux kernel 1.2.13
  * gcc/g++ 2.6.3
  * g77 0.5.5
  * libg++/libstdc++ 2.6.2.4
  * libm 5.0.0
  * libc 5.0.9
  * libncurses 1.9.2
  * ld.so 1.8.5
  * binutils 2.5.2

(I know these aren't the latest version of the software components.)
I'm getting the following error message during compilation. Is there a
workaround or should I just get the pre-built statically linked
binary?

Thanks,
