Details:

(as suggested by Rik in bug #44445)

Selecting File | Exit from the main menu won't work immediately when Octave is
busy.
I'd expect it to be able to interrupt anything Octave is busy with at the
user's request (i.e., in the terminal) and then close Octave gracefully.

Just try it with:

for ii=1:100
eigs (randn (400))
endfor
