There's a configure option "gl_cv_func_gettimeofday_clobber=no" in the forked 
repo:

http://hg.octave.org/mxe-octave

that lets the build progress for another half hour so, but then there are other 
errors that look like static vs shared issues. You may want to check if static 
building is supported.
