Octave parcellfun panics

[trolin421]

I updated MacPorts yesterday, and now the parcellfun function from the general package is unusable. Here's a simple test file:

function foo()

parcellfun(2, @myfunc, {pi; e});

end function myfunc(val) end

When I run it, I get:

parcellfun: 0/2 jobs doneoctave(17310,0x7fff7c400180) malloc: * error for object 0x108b93220: pointer being freed was not allocated * set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug panic: Abort trap: 6 -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to 'octave-core'... save to 'octave-core' complete Abort trap: 6

I've found mention of this error going back some months on various forums, but I've found no clear explanation nor solution/workaround. It worked fine since I last updated MacPorts within the last week or two.
