Comment (by dan@…):

 Just a confirmation that I have this problem, too.  Just like the report,
 except that Octave is 4.0.3, running on a Mac Mini (late 2012) under
 10.11.5.  Would love to hear when this gets fixed.  If whoever is working
 on it happens to be local to the SF Bay Area, lunch or coffee are
 available as a reward!  Thanks.
