Personally, I would advice to just install the new libc, libg27++.
This is what debian 1.2 uses, and you will not be able to install
most of the packages in 1.2 if you have libc-5.2.18. On the other
hand, I don't use Octave, so I cannot promise you that it will work.
The rest that uses libg27++ does work, however.
