[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60081] loading bad hdf file corrupts memory; segfault at exit

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #60081 (project octave):

Thanks for testing.

The attached additional patch will hopefully fix that issue as well.

With that change the original file is actually correctly read in Octave for
me.
But I think the first patch should still be applied to avoid a similar issue
if `load` is used with a HDF5 file that actually stores types that Octave
cannot recognize.
