Forget the above.  It seems that PKG_ADD is not really deprecated, since
some package need it (like  gsl, secs2d, ftp, secs1d, graceplot, xraylib,
octcdf, integration, ann, java, combinatorics, jhandles, symband, symbolic
and ocs).

I fixed the problem by commenting toggle_use_grace in PKG_ADD via a quilt
patch (already committed to SVN).  If nobody objects, I will soon upload
octave-graceplot 1.0.5-1.
