Follow-up Comment #3, bug #52980 (project octave):
I see the issue, and I suspect that the problem is the way Octave implements
parameter passing by storing the parameter values in an array that is live for
the duration of the function call, then also assigning them to elements of the
function's symbol table.
It would be good to fix this problem but if I'm right about the reason, then
I'm not sure there is any simple way to do it.
