Attached is a patch that makes of-linear-algebra compile with MXE Octave.

My vote is at least a ticket that lists them so they dont get forgotten.

I'm hoping to prepare a new release of windows and few others I maintain for the 5.0.0 release, and will tying to ensure they compile with the current dev octave as of teh release date.

A little OT:
With Octave-6.0.0, several OF packages with binary modules won't (cross-)compile anymore due to deprecation of e.g., is_numeric_type (replaced by isnumeric) and such, and namespace changes (like feval => octave::feval). I could adapt the affected OF packages except communications, sparsersb and odepkg, and OF-windows can't be built due to an apparent syntax issue that octave-5.0.0 didn't complain about.
I didn't prepare csets yet (a lot of work that I think lies with the pertinent package maintainers), just adapted the code to get the packages built.

What should I do here? open a bug report for ever single "failing" OF package, or just one bug report for all of them (as there are several common causes)?
Whatever, maybe I'd better wait until after Octave-5.x.x is released. Or am I wrong there?

As a for info, I had gone through all the packages in may and reported any that did not compile or noted if they compiled from dev.

I think most of the patches in mxe should be covered in bug reports or are already applied to the dev repos.

For linear algebra:

As to OF linear-algebra IMO the entire ./src subdir could be thrown out as all binary functions are already in core Octave.
At least I did this for my own cross-builds for Windows since one or two years, maybe even more.

FYI, in mxe-octave/src there are many patches for several packages that used to include config.h. It may be that for some OF packages there are bug reports about it but I think for many others these fixes were just silently included in mxe-octave.

(adapting title to current conventions)
release => other (OF package)
status => confirmed

Looks like the linear-algebra forge package is still using the deprecated/removed "config.h" from Octave. I think it needs to be updated to use the new header arrangement.
