Ok so far I can reproduce it (tested with fltk first).

make check was ok

Summary:

  PASS   6905
  FAIL      0

and I get exactly the error 
error: memory exhausted or requested size too large for range of Octave's 
index type -- trying to return to prompt

when running Pyramid.
It is exactly the plot statement before the Raumwinkel5.png is printed which 
throws the exception, if you comment that plot out and replace it with 
plot(1:10) everything runs fine.

So we have to check what weird thing happens in that plot.
