Yes we are aware of these shortcomings in the original ITSOL library with the debian fedora and cygwin packagers we have been trying to get patches accepted upstream to deal with this but response from the upstream maintainer has been intermittent ...

OK; good to know. I think the developer's intention was to make those functions static to the file in which they are used. Do you agree? Do you have other patches that I could incorporate?

BTW, it's been long time since I last managed to build Octave with +accelerate, I think it will be hard work if you want to make this variant with the next Octave release.

In MacPorts "octave" is the 3.2 release while "octave-devel" is the 3.6 release (latest versions). I have not used octave I think ever (not even tried to build it), but I do maintain octave-devel and it does work with +g95 and +accelerate; or with +gcc4X and +atlas out of the box with little extra coercion.

...

which is just fine, since if the new octave uses this project then they will have similar requirements. +g95 works just fine, btw, at least for me.

If you mean it works fine for building ITSOL I'm not surprised, but if you managed to use it for building Octave 3.7 I'd be really interested in knowing your recipe ...

I do not have access (TTBOMK) to Octave 3.7 yet, in any form. Has it been released and I just didn't know? Looking at < https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/download.html > this does not seem to be the case. If anyone wants to get me a beta to test out, I'll do what I can.

Thank you very much for your effort!

You're welcome; let's hope I can find time to finish it quickly, since I've got a lot on my queue right now and more coming ;) - MLD
