just built the octave devel with fltk-1.3.
It works but I noticed a curious bug

when plotting complex images, if the plot window is positioned lower 
than the other xterm window the plot window is sometime incomplete and
stop at the end of the other xterm window.
If the plot window is positioned higher than the other
xterm window this does not happen.

Clicking with the cursor on the plot window usually make
the full image to appear. (not always at the first trial)

Also moving the plot window around could cause the
the image to disappear and be replaced by a copy
of the other xterm window.
Changing focus , not always at first trial, solve the issue.
