Details:

Using the units() function available in the Miscellaneous OctaveForge package
to convert to Kelvin produces a syntax error.

A code example should illustrate this bug pretty simply:

        octave:11> units("degF", "K", 90)
        parse error:
        
          syntax error
        
        >>> y = x*0.55555556 +255.37222);
                                       ^
        
        parse error:
        
          syntax error
        
        >>> y = x*0.55555556 +255.37222);
            ^
        
        error: called from:
        error:   /path/to/octave/miscellaneous-1.2.0/units.m at line 52, column
