Fwd: octave updated to 3.4.0-3. Please test (strcat error)

[A.R. Burgers]

LS,

with the current octave, I get this octave strcat
error on plot, both with xterm and the dumb terminal.
Same error on two different windows XP systems.
Same error with libstdc++6 and libgfortran3 from cygwin-ports gcc 4.5.2-2
