Trouble building Octave on HP

[Rafael Laboissiere]

I am trying to build Octave 1.2.13.95 for HP and got the following error
message:

===========================================================================

Here are my configure options :

./configure --prefix=/public/local.hp9000s700 --enable-shared --enable-shl 
--enable-lite-kernel

It looks like file /usr/include/sys/time.h for the HP system is buggy.

Does somebody knows what is wrong and how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,
