Follow-up Comment #6:

I think this is due to

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/bd4f3d2ce52f

The libinterp/octave.cc command-line option processing code uses the global
variables 'optarg' and 'optind' provided by the getopt.h header file. This
change was made to encapsulate the gnulib implementation of getopt on non-GNU
systems, but doesn't correctly handle the 'optarg' and 'optind' global
values.

Setting system to "Any" even though it's really only non-GNU (IOW Windows and
macOS) systems.
