Details:

I do not have arpack installed; this is correctly detected by ./configure:

configure: WARNING: arpack not found.  The eigs function will be disabled.

However, "make check" does checking of eigs which leads to crash:

src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/dmperm.cc ............................ PASS    1/1
src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/eig.cc ............................... PASS   20/20
src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/eigs.cc ..............................panic: Segmentation
fault -- stopping myself...
make[2]: *** [check] Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV)

When running Octave, it knows eigs is not compiled in:

> eigs
error: eigs: not available in this version of Octave

The crash happens in both 3.2.4 and dev.
