This has been fixed since Octave-3.6.2.  Please upgrade to access the fix.

Yes, I apologize for that. I meant that Octave generates an error message (the function crashes) but not Octave itself. Sorry about that.

In this and your other bug report you say "crash" alarmingly often. A crash is often understood to mean that the program receives a signal from the operating system, such as segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) or illegal instruction (SIGILL) and abruptly terminates, usually indicating what signal it received.

Is this indeed the behaviour you're observing? Not just error messages generated by Octave, not by the operating system? Because if you really are seeing this many crashes and not error messages, something is very wrong with your Octave installation and you possibly have a corrupt binary.

A.a = struct([]);
A.b = 1;
A(3) = A;
isempty(A(2).a)

This crashes but should not
