I was wondering if that was it. A while ago, I tried to fix mkoctfile
to pass more options to the compiler and linker correctly with -Wl and
-Wa, but I ended up breaking almost all Octave-Forge packages. A
suggested alternative was to simply pass any unrecognised mkoctfile
options to the compiler and/or linker.

I have a half-written patch back when I tried to do the latter. This
isn't at all working, but it may be the right direction to take.
