It is hard to read this log (I edited it to make it verbatim).
On R 3.3, I could install the CRAN and Github master version with:

R CMD INSTALL --no-clean-on-error RcppOctave

run on the unpacked tar.gz.
The package then loads and runs fine under R 32bit, but R crashes when exiting, which is hard to debug. I will need to investigate further.
