[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59206] crash during matrix multiplication (Win only)

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #29, bug #59206 (project octave):

@Kai, comment #18:
Yes, the w64 installer 2020-10-26-02-31 crashes here with that code in comment
#7.

Looks like my WAG in comment #16 wasn't so bad.

[Slightly OT]
Maybe this also explains crashes I've been seeing for years at work, where for
groundwater model input a large sparse matrix is multiplied with an equally
large diagonal one; same behavior. The invocation itself is correct *and* has
been working with Matlab for over a decade.
That crash is one of the main showstoppers when I tried to persuade my
colleagues try Octave instead of Matlab. So, perhaps my Core i5 at home
doesn't match the (older) dual Xeons at work.
I should have tried with ref BLAS ... (will do)
