 The problem is that the libz shipped by Sage and the one used by the
 system (and which was linked by Octave) do not play nicely together.

 To work around this write a script called octave (I assume that is the
 name of the octave start script/binary

 #!/bin/sh
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=SAGE_ORIG_LD_LIBRARY_PATH; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 exec octave "$@"

 I didn't try this, so you might need to adjust something.

 To fix this once and for all in sage we should use native execute -
 would someone open a ticket since I am about to go offline for the
 night :)

 Cheers,

 Michael
