The message that I get is:
gbarrick@TS207 ~/jpegs/figs $ octave /usr/bin/octave-3.6.1.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
now you triggered all my attention as octave package maintainer
try this
$ cd /bin $ strace -o /tmp/octave.strace octave-3.6.1.exe --version
it should open a system message window mentioning what is missing
regards Marco
Subj: most recent xfig-3.2.5b-2 broken.
Hi Marco,
I ran strace on the octave-3.6.1.exe and got an empty message file.
terminated with a WinXP error alert box that said:
octav-3.6.1.exe - Unable to locate component [ [ This application has failed to start because [ D:\Program Files\AlwilSoftware\Avast\snxhk.dll [ was not found. Re-installing the application [ may fix this problem. [
I guess that something is seriously screwed-up if my octave is trying to access a .dll from my antivirus program. I did install a program upgrade from Avast on Friday. It seems to be a bit more intrusive than the previous versions. However, my upgrade to octave-3.6.1 did not occur until this morning.

Hi George, probably octave is just the victim of Avast I suspect the your antivirus is screwing up cygwin in general. Probably it tries to inject a dll in the dll chain
Regards Marco
