Compiling 2.1.14

[etienne grossmann]

  Hello again,

  I think I found where the problem was : after a quick inspection of
liboctave/mx-inlines.cc, it seemed to me that the "extern"
declarations where misplaced, so I removed them. Doing "make" and
"make install" then worked.

  Is this patch needed just by me?
