Follow-up Comment #1, bug #47807 (project octave):
Some thoughts about this issue:
* Matlab's behaviour in this case is not clearly documented, but it is
somewhat natural: in all cases, run ("toto.m") produces the same result as
executing the command "toto" (assuming toto.m is on the path).
* In Octave, run() relies internally on source(). There is of course nothing
wrong with source() behaving this way, since source() is an Octave-only
function (perhaps should it be documented explicitely ?). The problem is that
run() should not simply rely on source(), at least in this case.
