noting that this is still the state of things as of octave 6.4.0, where the sealso's are links on in the octave.org doc pages, but not the octave forge pages. worth noting that the comment #0 link should now be:

https://octave.sourceforge.io/octave/function/dbclear.html

the octave forge function list was dormant and not updated for some time. while that has been fixed, the sealso links are still missing.

The docs under octave.sourceforge.net are built by the generate_html Octave Forge package, retitling.

This could be a large undertaking for full support, for example if a function in the image package should have links to Octave core functions, functions in the signal package, etc. A first step could be to add seealso links only functions in the same package, or from within Octave core to itself.

so that when browsing, e.g.:
<http://octave.sourceforge.net/octave/function/dbclear.html>
the following line would have three links:
See also: dbstop, dbstatus, dbwhere.

interestingly, in this page such links do exist:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Breakpoints.html>
