If issued with --help, it also prints 42 lines of information (in
Portuguese).
Any attempt to see documentation be it by asking a node, e.g. 'info
octave' or directly to a known info file, e.g. 'info -f
/usr/share/info/octave.info.gz' segfaults.
The message says the core dumped has been stored, but I still didn't
manage to find where to get a look with gdb.
