Octave 3.03 build Problems

[David Laxer]

I eventually got both versions of Octave to build.  I didn't find any 
packages
for RHEL5 with 'yum list all', up2date or rpm.  Did I miss them?

I still get these 'configure' errors with this command:
./configure  CXXFLAGS=-fPIC CFLAGS=-fPIC 
CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/qhull-2003.1/src -I/opt/ftgl-2.1.3~rc5/src
