Details:

Hello,

When using Octave 4.0.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 (64bit) and the English (US)
international keyboard layout (Selection is switched using ibus), typing an
apostrophe in the editor tab causes Octave to crash. Note that in this layout,
typing <'> does not output an apostrophe, it is used with another key to
output accents such as <'> followed by <e> reesults in é or the literal
apostrophe with <'> followed by <space>. Upon tapping the spacebar, octave
crashes.

This does not occur with the regular English keyboard.

This bug does not occur all the time, to reproduce:
- Setup ibus to have both English (US) and English (US, International)
- Launch octave with "octave&" or "octave"
- Switch to the editor tab
- Type in some characters using the English (US) layout or English (US,
International)
- Switch to English (US, International) if not already in use
- Type in an apostrophe (<'> + <space>)
- Program crashes

Upon crashing, I only get this console output:

octave exited with signal 11


Please contact me if I can provide any additional details.
