This is an old version of Octave. Your example does not
crash the current version (2.0.13) on Linux.

Also, please do not send core dumps. They do not contain
any useful debugging information for people on other 
architectures and probably don't even help for people on
the same architecture.

Cheers,
Erik

When a user mailbombs me with 100,000 messages, we 
call it denial of service and the guy can be thrown 
in jail.  When 100,000 SPAMMERS send me one mail each, 
we call it marketing.
