Forgot:
./configure --enable-shared --enable-dl --without-hdf5

Good news:
Octave passed all tests
Hello.oct works

Buglets:
* Have to pass -L/opt/local/lib (was specified in LDFLAGS) to mkoctfile 
for it to find lg2c (FLIBS)

* I forgot to add install names to octave libs (will fix ASAP, set 
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH until then)

* Small typo in Makeconf.in

 NO_OCT_FILE_STRIP = @NO_OCT_FILE_STRIP@

Nevertheless, quite an improvement.
Compiling octave-forge will probably expose the remaining issues.
