Follow-up Comment #1:

Same error for me.

Actually I think the bug/regression is that Octave now prints the PS1 prompt
when reading commands from stdin when it is not a terminal. This is probably
due to recent works in progress as discussed on the maintainers list.

Previous behavior:


$ echo OCTAVE_VERSION | octave -qf
ans = 3.7.0+


New behavior:


$ echo OCTAVE_VERSION | octave -qf
octave:1> ans = 3.7.2+
octave:2>
