On RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 (gcc version 3.4.3 20050227 (Red Hat 3.4.3-22.1))
with few days old cvs snapshot of octave and octave-forge I got:


octave:1> listen(1234,"debug")
listening on port 1234
trying to accept

server: got connection from 127.0.0.1

read socket returned 0
child is exitting

and on another terminal:
./octsync.tcl 1234
bounce 5 at time 0ms
length of head=8
!!!x<14>
cmd=<bounce sock3 4>
bounce 4 at time 4ms
length of head=8
!!!x<14>
cmd=<bounce sock3 3>
bounce 3 at time 45ms
length of head=8
!!!x<14>
cmd=<bounce sock3 2>
bounce 2 at time 85ms
length of head=8
!!!x<14>
cmd=<bounce sock3 1>
bounce 1 at time 125ms
length of head=8
!!!x<14>
cmd=<bounce sock3 0>
bounce 0 at time 165ms

So it looks to me that it is not FC4 / gcc4 related problem....
