First, you should never build software while logged in as root.  Very
dangerous.

Second, this list is for problems with the GNU make program itself: your
issue here is that the Octave source code is not working as expected.
There's no issue with GNU make here: the makefiles contained in the
Octave package, or the configure script, or something, are not working.

You'll need to contact the Octave developers (most likely they have some
sort of help mailing list) and ask them about these problems.

Good luck!
