I've removed my parallel work from the upcoming patch.

Didn't know about that one.

If they are somehow getting /usr/include/fnmatch.h to compile with a  
compiler that does not define __cplusplus, then they will not get the  
extern "C".  Perhaps octave's config.log from someone who encounters  
this problem would be informative.

These two are fixed in my upcoming patch.  They are really the same  
thing.  #11167 nailed it on the head,
