What does

    octave_config_info ("features")

show?  This is a list of all the HAVE_X macros, with the common "HAVE_"
part omitted.  On my system, it has FFTW3, but not FFTW, so it looks
like the testif check is wrong.
Dan,

The problem seems to be that not all #defines are captured in the new
"features" keyword.  The definition for HAVE_FFTW is in configure.ac in the
AH_BOTTOM macro which means it is copied to the bottom of config.h.

/* Octave is currently unable to use FFTW unless both float
    and double versions are available.  */
#if defined (HAVE_FFTW3)&&  defined (HAVE_FFTW3F)
#define HAVE_FFTW
#endif

I wasn't following closely what jwe did when he added the "features"
keyword, but hopefully it is simple to fix.

OK, thanks. Probably in over my head had I looked for that. But now that you point out the test above I think I see what the problem is. The test is "defined". Both of those variables appear to be defined, if I'm following correctly, but they are given the value 0, i.e.,

    FFTW3 = 0
    FFTW3F = 0

So maybe either the test should be something other than defined() and instead check the value of the FFTW3, FFTW3F, or FFTW3 and FFTW3F should be left undefined rather than setting them to 0.
