I played more with this and it is erratic on my computer(s).
Sometimes the same sequence produces the bug and sometimes it
does not. Once I managed to reproduce the bug with repetitive
repeat of the same sequence withing the same octave
session, but it happened only ones, usually if I do not
see the bug withing the session, I cannot trigger it.
I also tried to strace octave (strace octave 2> octave.strace)
and in the strace log I always see "warning: broken pipe" and 
"error: `bogus' undefined near..." which I guess means I never
trigger the bug under strace.
