Hello

I am　trying  to build octave 3.4.2-rc2 on MinGW.
As were shown 3.9.9x and 3.4.0, library missing error happened as below.

This was already reported.

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?32250

For the source on Mercurial archives, this error never happened for both dev 
and 3.4.x branches.

I will add 
export LIBS='-lgfortran -llapack'
as performed before.
