Problem in compling make_int.cc using mkoctfile

[Wen-shiang Chen]

Hi,

I was trying to compile the make_int.cc file come with the octave 
package (octave-2.1.35-4 on a Redhat 7.3) but had no luck so far.  I am 
not sure the cause of the problem since I am not familiar with 
programming.  I can compile and run hello.cc and oregonator.cc without 
any problem.  The c++ related packages I have installed are 
gcc-c++-2.96-113.i386.rpm, libstdc++-2.96-113.i386.rpm, 
libstdc++-devel-2.96-113.i386.rpm.  I am not sure if the following 
packages are relevant, but I have also installed 
glibc-devel-2.2.5-43.i386.rpm and bison-1.35-1.i386.rpm.

The error messages I got are provided as follows.  Sorry for the long 
message and Thanks for any help!
