[Bug 325118] [NEW] Octave segfaults on 'clear all'

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: octave

Typing 'clear all' in the interactive interpreter in octave, causes it
to segfault.

I obviously think that crashing on clearing all is a little extreme. I
also have octplot loaded by default, and I do not paginate output.
Otherwise, just stock standard.

In the latest Ubuntu Jaunty version (as of Feb 4 09), I have these octave packages installed:
