Like you, I don't know what causes this problem.  Unfortunately, I've
never seen it before either.  In any case, a possible solution would be
to put a little script like this in SAGE_ROOT/local/bin/

-------------

#!/bin/sh
/the/actual/path/to/your/octave/program/octave $*

-------------

Call it "octave" and do "chmod +x octave" to make it executable.

Let me know what happens.
