Do you also have octave-forge installed? There's a good chance this is a dupe of bug #448467. There are two particular SWIG-built packages that can cause this.
Yep, I can duplicate this if octave-forge is installed and it goes away if octave-forge is removed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 448467 ***
