Update of bug #58505 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Release:                   5.2.0 => 6.0.90                 
        Operating System:               GNU/Linux => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

I can confirm the crashes here.

Since development for Octave 5 has stopped, I'm re-targeting the release to
version 6.

It is clear that Octave shouldn't segfault in any of these cases.
Since "glpk" is an Octave-only function, we can decide what the desired
behavior should be.

For the probably easier case with NaN input:
* Should Octave throw an error?
* Should the function return NaN? For all output arguments (errnum!)?
* Something else?
