No. Just the opposite: install/CONFIGURE says

     * --enable-shared -- Build shared versions of the C++ runtime
       libraries if supported --disable-shared is the default.

So I forced the configuration into building shared libs. The compiling lead to a
struggle that did cost me the whole afternoon. Now that I have this shared lib,
I can run the mkoctfile unmodified and get an octfile which I can load, but that
crashes Octave:

Do I need to rebuild Octave with shared libs now?
