loqs, why would this break the testsuite though? Erich, that's a lot of FAIL: test_scripts/*.sh without any useful logs of why it failed; is there a way to get a more verbose report on why they're failing?

The additional warning messages cause output produced to be different than expected?

Ah, that makes sense.

(It's also entirely the wrong way to error on the testsuite for dependency warnings...)

These messages generated by Perl, are propagating in Octave when viewing 'certain' help documentation:
