Follow-up Comment #18, bug #34210 (project octave):

I add Michael's report on the maintainers list for the MSVC build report as
records.

Compiles fine under MSVC (VS2010) with the patch I'm maintaining. 
However I'm unable to run the full test suite, because of this 
problem: 

  scriptsgeneralprofile.m ..............................Assertion 
failed: last_time >= 0.0 && last_time <= t, file 
../../src/profiler.cc, line 400 
panic: Aborted -- stopping myself... 
make: *** [check] Error 3 

Michael. 



Could the below adding  "volatile" keyword for CYGWIN and MinGW be related to
that of the MSVC case ? 

(Just above line 400) 
************ 
double 
profile_data_accumulator::query_time (void) const 
{ 
  octave_time now; 
  // FIXME -- this should be removed at some point...  See bug 34210. 
#if defined (__CYGWIN__) || defined (__MINGW32__) 
  volatile 
#endif 
    double dnow = now.double_value (); 
  return dnow; 
} 
************* 

The phenomenon is similar to the bug 34210

Thanks Tatsuro, that solved the problem. Now I can run the full test 
suite, which gives the "expected" failures under MSVC.
