I can't reproduce this anymore either, and I could back in November. I'm going to to close this report. It could be something to do with system libraries as I have upgraded my OS since then.

I can't reproduce this. Can someone (Juan Pablo?) confirm that it is no longer a problem?

Confirmed. This is actually a regression. I had to go back to version 3.6.4 to find where Octave behaved correctly.

More details: It seems to only affect the command form of the keyword in question. If the identifier is used with function syntax then it works correctly.

The sample code below works.

Sorry for the broken post.
It should say:

Once the keyword "help" is shadowed it cannot be undone without exiting Octave. Clear all doesn't work.
