I can build and run on Mac OSX 10.4.11, powerpc/G4, dependencies via  
MacPorts, with the configure line

./configure LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib LIBS=-lmetis CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/ 
local/include FFLAGS=-ff2c

I get a segfault when "make check" processes src/data.cc.

Running "test data" within octave gives and error, but no crash:

Mon 16:43 $ nice ./run-octave -q
octave:1> test data
  ***** assert (hypot (single(1:10), single(1:10)), single(sqrt(2) *  
[1:10]));
!!!!! test failed
assert (hypot (single (1:10), single (1:10)),single (sqrt (2) *  
[1:10])) expected
octave:3> (hypot (single (1:10), single (1:10))-single (sqrt (2) *  
[1:10]))./eps('single')
ans =

   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0  -8   0

Running under the debugger with
 ../run-octave -g  --norc --silent --no-history ./fntests.m .

gives an 83-level backtrace I've pasted into an attachment.  Advice?
