That was the problem. After changing default_save_options to "-text"
the packages can now be installed and loaded normally with no errors
or warnings.
For some reason I had default_save_options("-ascii") in my .octaverc
configuration file and that was causing the issue.
Thanks for the attention. Octave-3.0.0 now functions normally for
me regarding packages.
