Follow-up Comment #1, bug #45816 (project octave):

Octave makes use of the gnulib module canonicalize to provide
canonicalize_file_name.  There is also the module canonicalize-lgpl that might
be used instead.  It's a long test, but conceptually simple.  Change
bootstrap.conf to use the -lgpl module.  Change liboctave/system/file-ops.cc
to remove 'include "canonicalize.h"' and replace it with "include <cstdlib>"
which might already be included anyways, bootstrap the build, run configure,
run make, run make dist to create a tarball, transfer over the tarball to an
MXE directory and then run the build process there, and finally test the
result in Windows.

My guess is that it is an upstream bug in gnulib and will need to be reported
there.
