Details:

Hi

  h=plot(1,1) 
returns a random real number.
  h = -2.2429

This is not a proper plot handle. As a result
  close (h)
will fail.


h2=gcf() and 
h3=figure()
work fine.

Version: 4.2.1-5 on Debian buster
Not sure when this bug started.
I get this bug for gui and cli octave and for both gnuplot and the gui
plotting.
