[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #40222] OF windows pkg doesn't get installed anymore with Octave dev version

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #40222 (project octave):

Attached is a changeset for version.in.h
 
Using this patch the OF windows package can be installed fine (tried on my two
Windows boxes.)

An obvious question is whether this is the appropriate fix:

- Is it version.h's "fault" to blindly rely on <string.h>?

- Or should configure in the OF windows package be amended? (so far I've only
encountered problems with the windows package, but I have only tried 10 or so
OF packages.)

Note that with current MXE Windows build, without this fix the
src/build_packages.m script will fail building the windows package.
