I don't see the seg-fault on the stable, but do see it on the gui-release 
branch (using the same configure options).  A common "feature" is that the gui 
thread is active when Octave starts for the default and gui-releaes branch ... 
meaning that an Octave icon appears on the MacOS Dock for the default and 
gui-release branches, but not for the stable branch.

When I have time, I'll start bisecting to identify the changeset.
