Problem is solved, here is John's answer from help-octave:
,----
| OK, here is what is happening. Octave and teTeX both use the
| kpathsearch library, and that library has some TeX-specific things in
| it. One thing it does is add some variables to the environment when
| it is initialized. So when Octave starts, it adds values for the
| following variables
|
| SELFAUTOLOC
| SELFAUTODIR
| SELFAUTOPARENT
| TEXMFDBS
|
| that are not appropriate for TeX. The quick fix is to add
|
| unset SELFAUTOLOC
| unset SELFAUTODIR
| unset SELFAUTOPARENT
| unset TEXMFDBS
|
| before running latex in your script. Another possible "fix" is to apply
| the following patch (relative to the current CVS sources). I think a
| better long term solution would be to make it possible to initialize
| the kpathsearch library in a way that avoids the TeX-specific
| initialization stuff.
