Re: Octave 6.0.90 test release available on alpha.gnu.org

Dear Developers,

here is the result of the test suite in Octave 6.0.90, on the system given below (compiled without GUI):

Summary:

  PASS                            15891
  FAIL                                7
  XFAIL (reported bug)               26
  SKIP (missing feature)            197
  SKIP (run-time condition)          14

Failed:

  plot/appearance/camlookat.m .................................... pass    9/10  
                                                                   FAIL    1

  sparse/ichol.m ................................................. pass   20/24  
                                                                   FAIL    4

  sparse/pcg.m ................................................... pass   15/16  
                                                                   FAIL    1

  specfun/cosint.m ............................................... pass   28/29  
                                                                   FAIL    1

System (Intel Core i3-7130U):

* Ubuntu 20.04 (Linux Kernel 5.4)
* Custom (non 20.04) libs:
  + mimalloc 1.6.4
  + openblas 0.3.10
  + flexiblas 3.0.2
  + qrupdate-ng 1.1.3
  + SuiteSparse 5.8.1
  + arpack-ng 3.7.0
  + sundials 5.3.0


I remember that "camlookat" failed previously (as in 5.1/5.2) for me, too.

PS: Some preliminary testing shows ode23s is very slow compared to MATLAB 2020a, once I know more I will send some info.

PPS: I may have found a scoping bug which could result from the nested function functionality: A variable named "t" declared in a function is not visible in a three level nested anonymous function later in that function, where the second level anonymous function has a "t" as a parameter. I will report a bug once I can reproduce it in simpler code.
