Your problem has the same symptoms as
https://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/bug-octave/2009-August/009350.html
Did you have a pkg command somewhere in a startup file when Octave

In any case, I can't duplicate the problem linked above.

The bug reporting guide says
If you are not sure whether you have found a bug, here are some guidelines:
* If Octave gets a fatal signal, for any input whatever, that is
a bug. Reliable interpreters never crash.
