FWIW, I'm able to build default with gcc 4.4 on CentOS 6, with the
following caveats:

* I have to explicitly declare CXX="g++ -std=gnu++0x", the automatic
  detection in configure doesn't work if the compiler doesn't fully
  support C++11. Without that option, the std::unique_ptr class is not
  found.

* I have to set the OCTAVE_DEPRECATED(msg) macro to be

    #define OCTAVE_DEPRECATED(msg) __attribute__ ((__deprecated__))

  because apparently the optional msg argument was added in gcc 4.5.
