In such situation, the debugging/tracing feature of the dependency
explorer tool is very useful.

The difference makes sense if you want to compile your own oct-files.
Depending on the compiler you plan to use, you should use the
right octave version. Indeed, there's no common C++ ABI, so for
instance you can't use VC++ to link against a C++ library compiled
with MinGW (and vice-versa).

Due to licensing reasons, MinGW compiler can be bundled with octave,
while VC++ cannot. However you can get it for free (as in free beer)
from MS web site.
