Hi Arjen: First a comment about your Cygwin setup.
The cmake.out file revealed (as you mentioned in your first message) that you are having trouble with X. That sounds like exactly the same problem that you intermittently had before. Is it possible installation of _any_ software on Cygwin means you have to go through the whole X initialization procedure again? And if that proves to be the case I hope you can automate that procedure so these intermittent troubles with X disappear.

Thanks for that report. The cmake.out results for finding Octave-3 look good. And it appears there was no build error on Cygwin with our Octave(-3) binding enabled which is good. Of course, as you stated there is an obvious run-time error with Octave on that platform, and ctest is not very informative about the details of that error. So I suggest you add the script options --do_ctest no --build_command "make" which will skip the uninformative ctest phase and also keep the build non-parallel when building the test_noninteractive target (which is the first thing done by the comprehensive test script if ctest is skipped). When the comprehensive test script builds that target it should run into the same octave run-time errors as ctest only it will do that verbosely and also in a non-parallel way which will show up in the report tarball to help me to diagnose exactly what is wrong with the octave component on Cygwin.
