I ran 
 octave.test/while/while-1.m
 octave.test/eval-catch/eval-catch-1.m
 octave.test/eval-catch/eval-catch-2.m
 octave.test/global/global-4.m

By hand, and got "no output" (except for a 'error: Permission denied'
when I ran the scripts, which matches the log file from previous runs).

When I ran octave.test/eval-catch/eval-catch-5.m, I did have "output".

But in all cases it seems to visually match the .exp file.

If it helps, I just installed the Nov 23, 2002 update to CYGWIN DLL
(v1.3.16-1) + latest packages

Until some known problems with eval and try/catch statements are fixed,
eval-catch-9, eval-catch-10, try-9, and try-10 will fail on every
platform.

I ran the others by hand with the current sources on a Cygwin system and
didn't notice any of these failures except tilde_expand-1, but that
fails for me because I have reset $HOME for my Cygwin login.

Most of the others seem to be cases that are suposed to match no output
(regexp for matching set to "^$" in the .exp files).  Perhaps the
problem is actually a bug in DejaGNU for this pattern?  Can you run a
few of the tests and compare with the expected results in the
corresponding .exp files?

Thanks,

jwe
