FWIW, some googling turned up that MinGW (nor MSVC) doesn't have
"setenv".
It seems "putenv" is advised.
Suggestions on how to get past this error?
I suppose the GUI code should use octave_env::putenv() instead.
Does that work on your system? If so, submit a patch to the tracker and I'll try it here on a linux system.
I won't be able to test that soon. But given that octave_putenv is based on gnulib's putenv, I expect it to work. Anyway, setenv in octave is working fine.
