Follow-up Comment #1:

This is expected with parallel-4.0.0. I thought this was documented, but
reading the docs again, I see that it actually isn't (which should be changed,
but this is not the current bug).

'parcellfun()' (and 'pararrayfun()') had to be reworked (with much effort) not
to use the 'fork()' system call -- because this causes problems -- but to use
separately started Octave processes. Functions defined on the fly, e.g. with
the command line interface, don't exist in these separate processes. This was
different when 'parcellfun()' used 'fork()'. There is currently no way to get
this to work with the current 'parcellfun()' implementation, sorry.
