NEW: octave-2.1.71-1 for Cygwin

[James R. Phillips]

INFO
====
octave 2.1.71  has been packaged for Cygwin.

GNU Octave is a (mostly Matlab (R) compatible) high-level language, primarily
intended for numerical computations.  It provides a convenient command-line
interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically.  It uses the
recently announced cygwin lapack-3.0 libraries for efficient matrix
computations.
