Details:

Test function:

function y = f(x)
  y = f(x);
endfunction


Remove limit on recursion depth:

>> max_recursion_depth = inf
max_recursion_depth = Inf


Expected system error, but Octave exceeded infinite recursions:

>> f (0)
error: max_recursion_depth exceeded
error: called from
    f
    f at line 2 column 8
