Follow-up Comment #3, bug #49211 (project octave):
Well yes, in Octave 4.0.3 waitpid is not implemented (if I'm reading the
source right).
Try
>> [pid, status, msg] = waitpid (-1)
pid = -1
status = 0
msg = No child processes
in Octave 4.0.3. The error message should say "waitpid: not supported on this
system" and other than that the function will do nothing.
In Octave 4.2 it uses gnulib's waitpid wrapper around the _cwait function.
