Juan,

The reason for doing the 'make maintainer-clean' before the update is
because only the old Makefiles know about all the created objects in the
DLD-FUNCTIONS/ directory.  This is the *.df, *.oct, etc. that I said you
could remove manually in Approach #2.  If you update to the new Makefiles
and then run 'make maintainer-clean' these files will still be left.  Now
if you run octave in the build tree with ./run-octave the library path will
include the DLD-FUNCTIONS directory and the corefcns directory and Octave
picks up the first directory.

You can test this with the new which() functionality.  Try

./run-octave
which fft

If it returns a file in the DLD-FUNCTIONS directory then you need to try
Approach #2.
