Follow-up Comment #16, bug #54170 (project octave):

I'm having second thoughts about my patch here. It avoids the crash, but it
produces bogus data and/or muddies the semantics of Octave `char`.

I think the right thing to do for the time being might be to raise an error
when trying to convert Java char[] to Octave char, and have it tell the user
to instead convert the Java char[] to a Java String and convert that, or
convert the Java char[] to Octave uint16. And provide a uint16(Java char[])
conversion to do so.
