Follow-up Comment #5:

I pushed a change to the release branch of MXE Octave adding a note to the
README.html file pointing to the wiki article mentioned earlier:
https://hg.octave.org/mxe-octave/rev/fa2337ae8097

Reading through the remainder of that file, I was wondering whether it would
be possible to add a note similar to the following one to the page where the
user selects the installation directory:

Some operations might fail if Octave is installed in a location containing
spaces if short file names have been disabled for the file system of the
installation folder. Some systems seem to have disabled that feature for some
partitions (e.g., on D:). If you are unsure whether your file system supports
short file names, chose an installation folder that doesn't contain spaces.


The readme file is shown after Octave is already installed. It might be nicer
to show that message when (or before) the user selects the installation
folder.
