Created attachment 317762 [details] octave-filter-asoption.patch Description of problem: This patch enables to compile octave on sh architecture. On this arch, gcc(gfortran) passes "-little" option to gas when compiling for backward compatibility. The configure script fails because of it. I also sent a patch for autoconf package beacuse this configure script was generated by autoconf.

Did you sent it upstream ?
No. Not yet. Could you contact upstream and push the patch please ?
I see the patch sane, so I will apply it. I will drop it in some time soon. - Thanks. I will push the patch with latest release. Octave needs some cleaning. Keeping watching ... Thanks
Thank you. I'll make efforts to contact upstream in myself from now on.
