Errors from matrix.h when using mkoctfile

[John Seales]

Octave version 3.6.2

Mac OS 10.7.5

I'm trying to use the Harmonic Progression Analyzer, which was written for Matlab. Very helpfully, the authors have included the C source for the a mex file that the program uses, which I've attached. 

HPSS_innerLoop.c
Description: Binary data

I've tried to make a mex file with mckoctfile, and haven't been successful. I'm hoping someone can get me on the right track. Thanks in advance. 

At the bottom of the email is the mkoctfile command I tried, and the errors generated. To me it looks like C code that is part of Octave itself is trying (and failing) to use C++ code. 

Line 45, the offending line of HPSS_innerloop.c, reads: #include "matrix.h"

Any advice or pointers in the right general direction will be greatly appreciated. 

octave:10> mkoctfile -mex 'HPSS_innerloop.c'
