Details:

In Octave 4.2.2 it was possible to use "keyboard" inside a function defined in
a script file.

file foobar.m

1;

function z = add (x, y)
  z = x + y;
  keyboard
endfunction

add (2, 3)


In 4.2.2 this gave "stopped in add at line 6"

In 4.4.1:

octave:1> foobar
error: add: no such file, ''
error: called from
   add at line 6 column 3
   foobar at line 10 column 1
