Sorry about the mistake. The problem appears to be with the function
src/mappers.cc, that seems to have gotten much bigger than the one
in the previous version octave-2.0.16. Furthermore, the compilation
was done with -O2, as shown in the log:

/usr/pkg/bin/libtool  --mode=compile c++ -c  -I. -I.. -I../liboctave -I../src -I../libcruft/misc  -I../glob -I../glob -I/usr/pkg/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -fno-implicit-templates -O2 mappers.cc -o mappers.o
