Ctrl-C in MEX file

[Matyas Sustik]

Hi All,

When I hit Ctrl-C (on linux) during a MEX file execution, first
nothing happens, then second time
I get a:
"Press Control-C again to abort."
message.

Another Ctrl-C will abort octave.  It would be more convenient if only
my program were aborted and octave would keep running with my
environment preserved.  Is that feasible?  Is there a setting that
would get that behaviour?

Thanks!
