Follow-up Comment #5, bug #45590 (project octave):

Octave conforms to the freedesktop.org icon standard, which means that all
icons have generic "well-known" names as well as fallback image files. The
icon used for the "Save File and Run" button is labeled "system-run". Octave
provides an icon file for "system-run" that looks like this:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/raw-file/421e3ebfca8d/libgui/src/icons/system-run.png

If you're seeing the three grey gears, that icon image is provided by your
desktop environment theme. In my case it's GNOME and I see the gears image
because that it's GNOME's preferred view of the icon called "system-run". If
you choose a different desktop environment and/or a different theme, you may
see something different.

We could ditch the "system-run" icon name and choose our own icon all the
time, but I'd be more in favor of keeping with the standard icon names so if
users do prefer different themes, the icons all change with the theme as
intended. Does that make sense?
