Ok, can you try `make check OCTAVE=octave-cli`?

I wonder if calling `octave --no-gui-libs --no-window-system` is not
quite the same as calling `octave-cli` on Windows. Maybe it's trying to
run the octave-gui executable anyway.

Great. Please keep reporting bugs on the issue tracker. I think we've
hit a few already that you could report, including the .libs directory
problem and the GUI crashing when any py function is called.

Have you tried OctSymPy with `sympref ipc native` yet?
