John, et al,
As John probably suspected, we may not be free of problems associated with
matrix.h vs. Matrix.h with Mac OS X.
First, in another exercise, I upgraded to gsl-1.8 and built, tested and
installed it. That seems to have solved my gsl problems with octave-forge.
Octave-forge now runs "make check," but with a few test failures.
In the process of the build, I noticed that the octave-forge make file was
looking for Matrix.h in /usr/local/include/octave-2.9.7/octave, so I copied
Matrix.h from /usr/local/include/octave/Matrix.h down to the
octave-2.9.7/octave directory. That satisfied the need for Matrix.h, but now
I'm getting errors similar to those encountered with the build of
octave-2.9.7:
