This likely means that you need to recompile BLAS and LAPACK (and/or
ATLAS if desired) on RHEL 5. I have run into this problem with the
atlas, blas, and lapack packages in RHEL 5, they are indeed compiled
incorrectly. I have rebuilt those packages myself (or built and
installed the libraries in my HOME) and have Octave working on RHEL 5.

I have a TODO item to write a wiki page describing how to build Octave
for RHEL 5 but haven't gotten around to it yet.

HTH,
