octave-forge configure failes on Linux-2.6

[Yuval Aviel]

Hi,

I'm not sure that octave-forge questions are allowed here, but help 
forum in the sourceforge is not too active ...

I'm running Fedora Core 2.
I've just build and installed octave-2.1.57 from the tar ball. No problems.
Next I downloaded octave-forage-2004.07.07.tar.gz
when running ./configure I get:
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking for mkoctfile... mkoctfile
conftest.cc:2:28: octave/version.h: No such file or directory
conftest.cc:3:29: octave/defaults.h: No such file or directory
conftest.cc:27: error: syntax error before string constant
conftest.cc:28: error: syntax error before string constant
conftest.cc:29: error: syntax error before string constant
conftest.cc:30: error: syntax error before string constant
conftest.cc:31: error: syntax error before string constant
configure: error: Could not run mkoctfile

Indeed looking in /usr/local/include/octave-2.1.57/octave/*.h
I can't see version.h nor defaults.h
