Possibly.  Check your config.log file to see that it says

build1 # grep "Qt GUI" config.log
  Build Octave Qt GUI:                  yes

If your log indicates "no" that is probably why the --gui option has no 
effect.  If this is the case, it might still be undesirable to continue 
with the CLI mode if "--gui" is specified and there is no GUI.
