No responses.  Assuming patch worked as expected.  Marking as Fixed and closing report.

I have pushed changeset http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/7fe4b83eb425 .
Now the base object constructor only creates the settings file when the gui is not launched. If the gui is used, the main window will create the settings file after the test for the first run.

Setting to "Ready For Test" and cc-ing jwe in case I am missing any side effects here.

While playing around with the settings file I realized that there is no welcome wizard at the first start of octave anymore. The test for the first run (by checking existence of the settings file) is done in the main window constructor but the octave object already creates the settings file.
