Details:

I installed the current Octave-4.2.0-rc2 Windows installer (from
alpha.gnu.org) onto my Win7 machine. When I do __run_test_suite__ after the
installation, this run mostly gets stuck for (at least 10) hours at the test
of "plot/util/copyobj.m", I just assume it will never finish.

Here is a short script to reproduce this behavior. On my Win-7 machine it
never makes it further then step 1, 2 or rarely 3. (One step takes less then
20 seconds if it ever passes.)


cd "C:/Octave/Octave-4.2.0-rc2/share/octave/4.2.0-rc2/m/plot/util"
for t = 1:10
  disp("========================");
  disp(num2str(t));
  disp("========================");
  tic;
  test("copyobj.m", "normal")
  toc
endfor


If I adjust the path in line 1 properly, and then run the very same script
under Octave 4.0.3 (official Windows installer again), then this test passes
just fine.
