[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61994] Crash on GUI exiting with octave_base_value objects still open.

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #32, bug #61994 (project octave):

The MXE builders on your buildbot farm were failing in the last few build
attempts.
They seem to be using the gnuplot graphics toolkit (maybe because they are
headless - not sure if that is important for that crash). They seem to be
crashing when they try to create the the documentation for the graphics
properties. E.g.:
http://buildbot.octave.org:8010/#/builders/20/builds/1124/steps/7/logs/stdio

warning: using the gnuplot graphics toolkit is discouraged

The gnuplot graphics toolkit is not actively maintained and has a number
of limitations that are unlikely to be fixed.  Communication with gnuplot
uses a one-directional pipe and limited information is passed back to the
Octave interpreter so most changes made interactively in the plot window
will not be reflected in the graphics properties managed by Octave.  For
example, if the plot window is closed with a mouse click, Octave will not
be notified and will not update its internal list of open figure windows.
The qt toolkit is recommended instead.

Could that be related to the latest changes to `__init_gnuplot__.cc`?
