: eye(1) stops octave as follows.
: 
: octave:1> eye(1)
: error: caught SIGSEGV -- stopping myself...

This will be fixed in 0.73.

: I am using binary file in Octave, version 0.72. tar-file.
: Machines are Sun SPARC, sunOS-4.1.1.
:                               ^^^^^^
: When octave starts, the following comment appears.
: 
: ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.1.6 has older revision than
: expected 7

Oops.  I'll make sure that future binary versions are statically
linked.

Thanks,
