Could you grab octave.el from emacs-24 branch
bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/emacs-24/? It should work on 24.3 as well and
possibly also 24.1 and 24.2 (less tested).

We have done some improvements to octave.el and it should work well with
Octave >= 3.8.0. If not please M-x report-emacs-bug.

Cheers,
Leo
