I'm not that good in C++; but from my experiences with mkoctfile I think one
needs to tell mkoctfile where EXTERNAL (= not Octave) dependencies
(~libraries) are to be found with (AFAIR) something like:
-l<name_of_external_library>  # that's a small caps "L"

BTW that external lib must be built with MinGW; Visual Studio-built libs may
not work.
