I seem to be getting flashes of figures when running 'make check' or
__run_test_suite__ from within Octave.  I thought we had addressed this
problem by making all of the BIST code use invisible figures.  Is that not
right?  Or have some new tests been added which aren't following the
convention?

On my system it is only the __opengl_info__.m function. The function
intentionally creates a tiny on-screen figure. If the figure is made
invisible, the function doesn't work.

Mike,

The function "__opengl_info__.m" is an internal one as marked by the leading and trailing double underscores.  Do we need to have a BIST test for this m-file?  Commenting out the tests--I wouldn't want to necessarily delete them since someone might find them useful--would solve the issue I am seeing with figures popping up.
