Hi Tatsuro,

I’m using the stable branch as a “preview” of 4.0.3. To build, I’ve created an 
archive for the default branch.

        hg clone http://www.octave.org/hg/octave

and then used that to clone a second archive for stable

        hg clone ./octave ./stable

You can use any existing hg archive for octave that is up to date and clone 
that.

To build the stable version 

        cd stable
        hg branch stable
        ./bootstrap

And then run configure & make

Ben
