IIRC correctly, Thomas reported that (correctly, I may add) directly to the bug list for Octave (this being an upstream issue, after all). In doing so, he noticed the bug_report failure. I think I'd consider that upstream too, though we could apply a Debian only patch. I general I do not like such forks, though.
