Just noting a "me too" for the problem with Octave 3.8.2 as noted in the
recent changes to octave-3.8.2.info, i.e.,
"./octave.ops:60: Argument of \\ has an extra }.",
on two separate Mac installations (home and work, both 10.11, both also with
TeX Live 2015 installed, if that matters).

I note the comment "the Debian patch from
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=790626 which is
supposed to fix the problem _triggers_ it for me.  Applying the patch
..."

But the Debian patch is _two_ files:

xbackslash-texinfo.diff: which is referenced in octave-3.8.2.info Revision 7
debian/patches/dont-use-included-texinfo-texmfcnf: which _isn't_

See:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-octave/octave.git/commit/?h=3.8
for both files.

I have done a test after applying both patches ...
need to run automake after applying dont-use-included-texinfo-texmfcnf.

The second patch suppresses the use of the texmf.cnf and texinfo.tex
files included
in the doc directory.

After aclocal, automake, etc., a build succeeded.
