Follow-up Comment #1:

Note that the documentation explicitly says

> Unlike the C language ‘scanf’, Octave ignores the ‘h’, ‘l’, and
‘L’ modifiers.

This might be a consideration for an enhancement, but is not incorrect when it
is behaving according to the docs.

In Octave 4.2 an integer value is returned, but it is limited to the maximum
signed 32-bit value.
