What a pity. 

Am I right that signal 4 refers to illegal instructions? So maybe the it's a 
matter of architecture? However, the i7 should be more than enough... 
I compiled it on a Macbook Pro i7 using 10.10.5 in a virtual machine with 
command line tools 7.1:

pkgutil --pkg-info=com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
package-id: com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables
version: 7.1.0.0.1.1444952191

It works also on 10.11.2 beta on the host. I did not try any other machine so 
far. 

Maybe you have a different version of the command line tools installed? Could 
that be a reason?
Does any other program from /Applications/Octave.app/Contents/bin run on your 
machine (e.g. gcc-5 --version)?

Thanks for testing, bye
