Hi Ben,

What are your skipped tests?
For me compilation fails with:

qterminal/libqterminal/unix/KeyboardTranslator.cpp:45:42: fatal error: 
ExtendedDefaultTranslatorMac.h: No such file or directory

and indeed I cannot find ExtendedDefaultTranslatorMac.h in the tarball, 
even though it is in the mercurial repo :

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/3e53eca42f00

any idea why this file is missing?
