The octave-2.9.9 in Fedora 6 is unpatched. I tried the patch and it
worked for me. I saved it as octave-2.9.9.patch, and used the following
modifications to the .spec file:

I've copied your diff and used against the original octave.spec; this give  the following :

Name:           octave
Version:        2.9.9
Release:        2%{?dist}
...
Patch:          octave-2.9.9.patch
...

%prep
%setup -q
%patch -p0
...

And then, rpmbuild -ba octave.spec result in 
+ echo 'Patch #0 (octave-2.9.9.patch):'
Patch #0 (octave-2.9.9.patch):
+ patch -p0 -s

This is my op-int-conv.cc.rej (without patch, ofcourse):

Is this equal to your? I've downloaded today the SRPM from 
heanet.ie, dated 04-Oct-2006 17:27, size 6.7M 
Should I replace the .rej in the tar.bz2 with David version?

Thanks in advance
