Building on mingw32/win32 using TDM's gcc-4.3.0-2 succeeds fine.
make check yields the following 3 errors:

d:\files\admin\octaveforge_svn\trunk\octave-forge\admin\Windows\mingw32\octave\octave-3.0.x\src\ov-fcn-handle.cc 
  PASS    2/3    FAIL 1
 
d:\files\admin\octaveforge_svn\trunk\octave-forge\admin\Windows\mingw32\octave\octave-3.0.x\scripts/miscellaneous\fileparts.m 
  PASS    3/9    FAIL 6

  test_poly.m ............................................ PASS   48/49 
   FAIL 1

The first one is known, and not yet solved. Let's hope for 3.2.0 :)

The second one I see is also reported by Tatsuro and according to the 
thread starting at
http://www.nabble.com/fileparts.m-in-octave-%28mingw-and-msvc%29-to21524425.html
it should be fixed. I need to update my repos and try again.

The third one tells
 >>>>> processing test_poly
   ***** error polyfit ([1, 2; 3, 4], [1, 2; 3, 4], 4);
!!!!! expected <.> but got no error

I'm not sure what this test should do, and why it should fail.
