Hello Octave users and maintainers,

I have uploaded my octave-3.4.2-mingw tree (based on Tatsuro's compilation)
so other windows users can try to use it and test it.
This tree is based on a subset of Tatsuro's recent compilations.
I have used these on XP-sp3 and win7-x64 systems.
It should be noted that my testing is limited and it is probable that some
dependencies libs or binaries are still missing.

There are two 7z archives:

a. Octave-3.4.2-mingw (without pkgs) -
http://www.multiupload.com/Z067A1W77N(see included readme)

This archive can be extracted to any subdir (with no space chars).
octave.lnk should be modified to point to the actual binary and icon file.
It includes libs, headers and binaries to support printing and basic
mkoctfile.
The environment vars are set via octaverc startup.
Notepad++ can be installed as an external application and set as default
editor in octaverc (see included readme).

b. Octaveforge pkgs, built for Octave-3.4.2-mingw  -
http://www.multiupload.com/6KICCHAPBJ (see included readme)

This archive should be extracted to the same tree as the first one and 'pkg
rebuild' should be run to adapt the pkgs db.
I have built 72 out of the octaveforge current pkgs ('windows' and 'ad' are
not auto-loaded due to a bug which cause a crash when 'clear all' is
executed, probably SWIG related).
The archive includes all the external dependencies required to install these
pkg's except for Java JDK which I have not included and should be downloaded
and installed.
For e few pkgs I had to make make some minor teaks and changes in order to
install them under this environment. I will report these to octaveforge pkg
maintainers in separate posts.
