        As a result of the change above, I suspect octave is not forked

        the terminal where you started it stays the controlling
        terminal; hence
        CTRL-C in that terminal as sent directly to octave as SIGINT. CTRL-O
        does not correspond to any signal, so nothing happens.

        Does CTRL-O work when you focus another widget than the embedded
        terminal widget?


    No, I don't think it was working properly.


    Ben, what is the behavior on OS X systems?  Do the keyboard
    shortcuts work?

    I can go back to forking and calling setsid on Unix systems and just
    using the ioctl call on OS X.


At the very least, we should at least check the return value of ioctl.

And do what with it?
