Details:

When I create new files with the integrated editor, I cannot run them by their
filename. I have to prefix a path.


>> dir hello.m
hello.m
>> which hello.m
>> run hello.m
no such file, ''
error: called from 'run' in file
S:\Programme\Octave-4.0.0-rc3\share\octave\4.0.0-rc3\m\miscellaneous\run.m
near line 84, column 5
>> hello
error: 'hello' undefined near line 1 column 1
>> run ./hello.m
Hello World


However, when I restart GNU Octave, any files that existed before the start of
GNU Octave can be found.


>> dir hello.m
hello.m
>> which hello.m
'hello.m' is the file C:\Users\Oliver\hello.m
>> run hello.m
Hello World
>> hello
Hello World


This also lets some Octave Forge package tests fail, which create and call
temporary m-files.
