Thanks Tatsuro for your description and the provided libraries. That made it 
possible for me to build octave 3.4.3-rc0 (and also the development branch 
from the hg repo) on Windows 7 64bit Prof. with the following result from make 
check (which looks really good for me)

----
Summary:

  PASS   7050
  FAIL      3

There were 2 expected failures (see fntests.log for details).

<snip>
There were 11 skipped tests (see fntests.log for details).
----
The skipped tests look like *nix specific features.
Two of the failed tests are just due to giving Inf's instead of NaN's.
