New year comes and it is time for some cleanup.  I started doing some triage
on the bug reports filed against the DOG packages.  For octave2.1, we have
the following open bug reports:

      #505373 FTBFS with GCC 4.4: missing #include
      #477348 octave2.1: documentation of randn lacking detail
      #367165 octave2.1: please put runtime libraries in /usr/lib, not /usr/lib/octave-VERSION
      #348480 polyfit breaks down over "large" x values

The first two bugs are tagged wontfix and we should just ignore them.
On the other hand, bugs #367165 and #348480 also apply to octave3.0 and
should not disappear when octave2.1 will be dropped from Debian after the
release of lenny.  Should we reassign those bug reports to octave3.0?
