[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49509] [mxe] failing tests on WinXP, including "test help"

[Hartmut]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #49509 (project octave):

I have done some more testing. The patch from comment #1 does NOT help at all.
Building rc3 with and without it doesn't make a difference regarding the
failure of "test help" under WinXP.

But I have an (uncorrelated) built of default-octave with and without the
"65001-patch". Without this patch "test help" works fine under XP, and only
applying this single patch makes "test help" fail under XP. So I have the
suspicion that this "65001-patch" is causing those troubles under WinXP.

I will now do a 4.2.0-rc3 built, with just removing this "65001-patch" (see
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/8c749f33ce0a) and see if solves
this issue.
