Tony, thanks for this hint.

Yes, it is possible. It seems compilation works fine, but there is a
huge number of "undefined references" when trying to link (the log file
has 356493 lines, only the first 7283 lines are related to configuration
and compilation, the remaining lines concern "undefined references").
The start and end of that section is shown below. The full log is
available here : http://pub.ist.ac.at/~schloegl/download/octave.log.txt.gz

Sometimes the order of the linked libraries is important. Do you think
that might be the case here, too?
