Follow-up Comment #1:

The second output being undefined is a different issue.  You could open a new
bug report for that.

As for the first part of this report, the "start" program should launch a new
Command Window and shell and then run the specified command.  If it is somehow
re-using the existing Command Window where Octave is running then there is
probably a problem with how we are using "start".

The documentation for the command is at
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/start.

Can you experiment with some of the options?  Perhaps "/wait" or "/elevate"
need to be thrown?  Also in testing, use the command which includes "gdb -p
%d" where %d is replaced by the results of getpid().
