Follow-up Comment #17:

This is only a problem with Readline.  Octave can use fopen, fprintf, fclose
on a hidden file without problems which I have verified.

The best thing is to report this upstream.  Readline is old, but still
supported, so there is a bug tracker for it somewhere.

I've changed the title to reflect the true cause and marked it as Postponed
since we need an upstream fix for this.
