Follow-up Comment #2, bug #43815 (project octave):

Rik, you are right that the only way a double-quoted string is supposed to be
created is if all the parts that are concatenated are double-quoted strings. 
I think that's OK and probably doesn't need to change.

We have to allow concatenation of ASCII numeric values with single-quoted
strings for Matlab compatibility.

I suppose we could disallow concatenation of ASCCI numeric values with
double-quoted strings, since that won't cause trouble for Matlab
compatibility.  What do you think?  Does anyone really need that feature?
