I did the above. 
After "make dist", octave-4.1.0+.tar.gz was generated in build directory.

The archived file contained the documentation.

Then I executed mxe-octave using this octave-4.1.0+.tar.gz.
make zip-dist

Build of default-octave step was stopped.

As you said, run-octave is meaningless because this is cross-build.

How can I do ?
