Details:

While testing patch for #34065 i've noticed that octave don't want to see
files in current directory if theirs filename starting with a number and
refuses to run such files when specifiyng full path (actually like Octave GUI
does - i noticed this fact in GUI for the first). For example:

$ cd ~
$ echo "a = [1 2 3]" > 4.m
$ cat 4.m
a = [1 2 3]
$ cp 4.m chet.m
$ octave
octave:1> pwd
ans = /home/andr
octave:2> run chet.m
a =
   1   2   3
octave:3> run 4.m
error: run: 4.m not found
error: called from:
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/miscellaneous/run.m at line 55, column 7
octave:3> run '/home/andr/chet.m'
a =
   1   2   3
octave:4> run '/home/andr/4.m'
error: run: file must exist and be a valid Octave script file
error: called from:
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/miscellaneous/run.m at line 46, column 2


Any ideas?
