Okay, CC'ing the arm buildd maintainers to see if the recognice
something from the log:
  
    http://buildd.debian.org/~luk/status/package.php?p=octave-symbolic#fail-octave-symbolic-arm

I am able to reproduce the problem locally. The problem is that the
build system is using -L/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnu/4.3.1 while this
directory doesn't exists.

The directory is also wrong on other systems, but as g++ and thus
g++-4.3 is used (g++-4.1 is used on arm), the directory containing
-lgfortranbegin is already in the include path.

I don't see any reason to compile this package with g++-4.1 on arm
anymore (the ICE have been fixed a long time ago), so the best
solution is probably to build with the default compiler on arm, like it
is done on armel.
