Builds fine on Ubuntu 9.04 (with reference lapack and blas libraries,
i.e. no atlas).

The scaling test in polyfit.m fails (was ok in 3.1.55)
scripts/polynomial/polyfit.m ........................... PASS    8/9    FAIL 1

More precisely

!!!!! test failed

But I don't know how to fix it.

Kind regards,
Julian

PS: Thanks for your efforts. I am looking forward to the new octave release.
