I applied a slightly modified version of the changeset here:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/6065bd58db2b

Can this bug report be closed?

Sahil's bug fix looks OK to me. It still applies (albeit not with some fuzz and an 83 line offset).

Since it is marked "Important", I hope it can be closed (or downgraded) before long.

I would like to update the GUI to use the following naming convention:

"Contribute to Octave" points to the "get-involved" page (which I would also like to rename to "contribute"). This is currently called "Developer Resources".

"Donate to Octave" points to the "donate" page. This is currently confusingly called "Contribute to Octave".

I know the term "contribute" is somewhat overloaded, but I would like to more clearly use it to mean "I want to help work on Octave in some way". The web site URL should also be "/contribute" instead of "/get-involved". I've already pushed a symlink to the current site that creates this new URL.

Note: I would just do this outright, but I assume it might be contentious, so hoping for some comments. Adding jwe to CC.
