Details:

Octave appears to be sampling uninitialized memory in bug #32683.  There are
no reports of segmentation faults, but this might be masking something deeper.
 In any case, it is a regression from 3.2.4 which behaved correctly for the
simple case of array concatenation ([A ; B]).

My vote would be to at least do a quick perusal for understanding.  If the bug
cannot lead to a segfault then it can be fixed later and needn't hold up the
3.4.1 release.
