Comment (by josephsacco):

 Ken,


 While I was pondering over what to try next,  I ran a build using
 Macport's clang-5.0.   That worked... :-)

 Per your suggestion I next updated 'ld64' to 'ld64 +ld64_xcode', cleaned
 octave, and started a build using Apple's clang.  The new and improved
 ld64 allowed configure to complete without error.  The build is ongoing as
 I type.  I will report back when it completes.

 -Joseph
