I have just compiled
- octave-4.2.0-rc3
- via an up-to-date mxe-octave
- and compilation done on an Ubuntu 14.04. system.
Letting this Octave run the test suite on WindowsXP gives me a failure of "test lscov.m" to my very surprise.
Running the official Windows installer of Octave 4.2.0-rc3 on the very same WinXP machine passes this test. (But this official Windows installer was obviously compiled on a different computer.)
Here is the relevant part of the fntest.log :
