I built Octave 8.4.0 from source without Java and `methods` works fine:


>> javaObject
error: javaObject: support for Java was unavailable or disabled when 

>> methods classdef_infile
Methods for class classdef_infile:
classdef_infile  disp


But with stable from two days ago, I cannot:


>> javaObject
error: javaObject: support for Java was unavailable or disabled when Octave
was built

>> methods classdef_infile
error: javaMethod: support for Java was unavailable or disabled when Octave
was built
error: called from
    methods at line 70 column 16


(it works fine with Java support setup).

I dunno if this is worth blocking the release for: maybe everyone builts with
java support (?)

The classdef example file is attached to https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65398

I notice it doesn't seem to effect old-style classes:

methods ftp
Methods for class ftp:
ascii    binary   cd       close    delete   dir      disp     ftp     
loadobj  mget     mkdir    mput     rename   rmdir    saveobj
