I have confirmed the 3.8 compatibility in current mercurial repository source
on ubuntu 14.04 (32 and 64 bit) and window 7 (32 bit).

Hmmm.
I do not have plan to do so.
What is important is now that peoples can use odepkg package on upcoming
release ver. 4.0.0.
I will switch my intention to make the patched tar-ball of the odepkg-0.8.4
(e.g. octave-0.8.4_oct4.tar.gz) but not odepkg-0.8.5. The patched tar-ball will
be uploaded my personal web site and I announce it on octave-mailing list.
