How did you install octave?
(Please clarify the OS, distro(ubunutu etcs.) and other information(machine 
information).

Perhaps environmental variable setting for your octave is corrupt.

Try mkoctfile -v or mkoctfile --verbose to clarify how command line expanded in 
details.

$ mkoctfile -v src/octv1op1res.cpp -I../clib/src -o  bin/octv1op1res



In your case, perhaps CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etcs are required to be set.
