It never gets build - just installed as one of the msys packages - not sure if it is ever used by octave itself.

For the initial problem, the issue with the missing dependancy was fixed a couple of months ago by http://hg.octave.org/mxe-octave/rev/5ad15d20d11b

I don't know that wget is required to be in the distribution at all. Can someone familiar with the mxe packaging comment on why wget is built and installed as part of the distribution? I don't see it listed as a dependency for anything. Can we just remove wget from the build?

C:\Octave\Octave-4.0.0\bin\wget.exe is installed by defaut.
But running wget either directly in that directory or from octave it crashes and complains about missing msys-crypto-1.0.0.dll

>> dos("wget foo.bar")
