The following changeset seems to fix the problem for me:

I think this is my fault. I was trying to fix the way the internal printing commands handled filenames beginning with "|" but I didn't seem to get all the details right. The filename "foobar-inc" set in gl2ps-print.cc. If I can't figure it out soon, I'll revert my changes.

I also get a hanging process, until I send an Enter to the build console.

On my system it is the pdflatex command that is hanging, and plotimages.m is waiting for that command to complete. If I let it sit it never returns. If I hit Enter, it says

If I run the pdflatex command from the terminal, I get the same error Michael has shown about foobar-inc.

When I run

from the command line, I also get no error message, but a hanging process.

Sorry, I left out a useful part of the error message:
Here is the full text:
(/usr/local/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/latexconfig/epstopdf-sys.cfg))
geometry driver: auto-detecting
geometry detected driver: pdftex

! LaTeX Error: File `foobar-inc' not found.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

On my fedora system the problem is:

! LaTeX Error: File `foobar-inc' not found.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...

This occurs when pdflatex is processing extended.tex

To test if others are having the same problem, just
type 'x' at the hang. The latex error message above
should appear.

hg id please?

I broke printing in the last few days, in this changeset:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/9a5bb6996b16

But it should be fixed again with this changeset:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/7be1f58f9dd7

If that's not the problem, then we'll need some more details. You'll probably have to run the plotimages script in a way that will allow you to find exactly where it is hanging.

Building octave from hg ends up in
