mkdir in libgnu seemed to be ignored in building liboctave (Development Branch)

Hello

Sorry for the separated post.

Platform MinGW, gcc-4.4.0 (windows XP).

This post is related to the previous post 
http://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/octave-maintainers/2009-December/014421.html

and also might be related to the following post
http://old.nabble.com/link-error-during-liboctave-on-MinGW-in-the-development-branch-(symbols-of-in-libgnu.a--)-to26911900.html

In both cases information of libgnu seemed not to be reflected for liboctave 
building.
Perhaps a flag for '-I../libgnu' is  missing for compiling sources for 
liboctave.
