Hi,

I think the best way to do this would be to start by adding your Octave interface to the 
linear-algebra package in Octave-Forge, then start working from there.

The first step to do so woud be to upload your interface code here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/feature-requests

so we can have a look and comment on it.

P.S. there is a student here at Politecnico di Milano working on an implementation of the ILU preconditioner
who might be interested in helping out.
