I checked in the following changeset:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/bafcfc5b99af

It seems to work for me now.

Making it condition on nargout sounds good to me.

Also, it seems that the documentation of this feature was removed at some point. Strange.

I proposed to have "-" mean write to stdout if nargout is 0, otherwise, if nargout is > 0, return the output in a string.

Hmm. Why was this change made?

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/d5db1019ad4a

Prior to this change, save '-' wrote the results to stdout. Now it returns the output as a string.

The changes to silence the build rules seems to have broken doc-cache for me. The file always comes out empty. The command seems to be running but produces nothing in the end.
