The localoctfiledir has been introduced in octave 2.1.  Sorry for not
testing my changes with Octave 2.0.  IMHO, we should not insist in
supporting Octave 2.0.  The 2.1 series is fully stable and I frequently hear
in of Octave users mailing lists that 2.0 should be abandoned.

However, I will try to find a fix to have the configuration working with
Octave 2.0 (here we go: more cruft in confiugre.ac ...)
