If you get a 2.1.71 version message upon loading 2.1.72, this has happened to you. Quit all octave sessions, and reinstall the upgrades. Note also that to compile .oct files, you need to use gcc 3.3.3. Both octave and octave-forge are compiled using this version. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
