My current hypothesis is that this FTBFS is due to the glibc ABI break
(http://lwn.net/Articles/605607/), in relation with the qhull library,
which was compiled with the old ABI and which is used in convhulln.cc.

The ABI break was reverted in glibc 2.19-9, which was uploaded
yesterday. I am currently testing a rebuild of octave against the new
glibc. If that works, I'll just request a give back.
