Something seems to be wrong with building the tarball from the current 
hg tip.  The commands:

    hg clone http://www.octave.org/hg/octave
    cd octave
    ./bootstrap
    ./configure
    make dist-xz

give the error message:

  CXX libinterp/dldfcn/libinterp_dldfcn___delaunayn___la-__delaunayn__.lo
  In file included from libinterp/dldfcn/__delaunayn__.cc:48:0:
  ./liboctave/util/oct-locbuf.h:26:27: fatal error: octave-config.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.

Am I missing something here?
