I think I misunderstood how to enable the namespace (I should have
read the new documentation more carefully). After adding
#define GNULIB_NAMESPACE gnulib
to Octave's config.h file, I first saw this error:

I got past this problem by changing the declared return types for
memchr and memrchr in gnulib/lib/string.in.h to be "const void *"
instead of "void *".
The next problem I encountered was

Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.4/README.Bugs> for instructions.
I have not investigated any further.
