By similarity with Matlab,
maybe you can try

>> help debug_on_warning
-- Built-in Function: VAL = debug_on_warning ()
-- Built-in Function: OLD_VAL = debug_on_warning (NEW_VAL)
     Query or set the internal variable that controls whether Octave
     will try to enter the debugger when a warning is encountered.


I don't know whether it works well though...
