Details:

I tried to build a mexfile using 

mkoctfile  --mex ...

and linking an external library. This external library includes a header file
"config.h" (I added the path to this file using -I...). However, during the
build process compile errors occurred because the header
"usr/include/octave-4.2.1/octave/config.h" (which I did not include via -I...)
was used instead of the file defined by the external library, leading to
missing definitions.
Renaming "usr/include/octave-4.2.1/octave/config.h" allowed the compiler to
successfully terminate.
