Follow-up Comment #10, bug #68172 (group octave):

Markus, your proposed temp solution would work, but I think it's a patchwork
solution over the bigger problem, which is that `all` and `any` aren't
supposed to work on non-numeric or non-logical types. I personally don't need
`any` and `all` disabled for classdef objects, I just noticed that it wasn't
supposed to work on them (because I have my list of default-defined classdef
methods that ARE supposed to work). So, I'd rather do a proper fix then apply
a quick one, especially because there's no need for a quick fix.

I agree that we can add this change, there should be NEWS entry.

I've attached a patch that (1) changes the classdef test files to use
Octave-specific syntax, (2) modifies the commit message to include the
classdef test files, and (3) adds a note in the NEWS.12.md file. I probably
didn't do the change in the NEWS file correctly, so feel free to tell me how
to edit it further.
