I have run into a problem with octave. After doing a series of updates and
reconfigures I have run into a problem. When I try to start octave I end up
with this output

Hi Andrew,

Please file a bug in bugzilla about this problem. It is
easier to keep track of things that way. Thanks in advance!

Furthermore, please try to recompile octave using -O2 instead
of -O3. You might also want to try replacing -march=pentium-m
by -march=pentium3. Please report back (in bugzilla preferably)
if this changes anything.

cheers,
Markus
