Description Joan Picanyol i Puig 2005-04-26 17:10:20 UTC 
	heimdal ports installs /usr/local/include/fnmatch.h without it's declarations wrapped by __BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS macro in order to be used by C++ programs. octave is a victim of this, since it tries to use heimdal's header and fails to link. This has been confirmed independently, see http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?426A9E94.20705

Fix: 

IMHO, heimdal should use the system's fnmatch header or at the very least avoid clobbering the namespace.
How-To-Repeat: 	delete de BROKEN line from octave's makefile and compile it. Install heimdal and try to compile octave. It will fail at link time with an error like:
