Adding the patch and retrying the last failed build worked.  I'm trying a 
build in a clean chroot now using the attached proposed NMU debdiff.  If it 
builds, I'll upload it directly as previously mentioned (if any Octave 
maintainer would prefer I don't because they are taking care of it, please 
speak up).  I do not intend to NMU 4.0 in experimental since it's not needed 
to complete the transition.

Thanks to both Norbert and Mike for all your help.
