 It is not so much a question of it being required, but this replacement
 of the octave link by a script that defines the shared library location
 isn't necessary when there are no shared libraries to load. :-)
 
 Meanwhile I've traced the compile problem to the libglob that is
 included with octave. See my second mail in the PR audit trail for a
 different and IMHO better fix.
