Thanks, I rebased to the stable branch and pushed:

    http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/51fd0cf227e4

Would you like write access to the Savannah repository? I count four
recent patches from you, all of which I applied without change, so you
seem to know what you're doing. We can always use more help.

You seem confused, so I blame the help text. I personally set edit's
HOME to "." so that files are always edited in-place or in the cwd. I
had forgotten that this wasn't default.
