I just tried with Octave 4.2.1 that I installed on Windows 10.
It has the following g++:
>> system('g++ -v')

Using built-in specs.

That is slightly newer (but not by much) than yours.
The struct package installed without any errors.

If the package doesn't compile for you, maybe you could use a pre-compiled package from your distribution?

Did you try that?
