Dear Eric,
I can confirm this with octave3.6.3 and graphics_toolkit gnuplot.
It works as expected with 3.6.3 and fltk. This also works with gnuplot 
and the current default branch 139f4b19a3ac.

Perhaps this patch 
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/566cf544d020 tried to adress 
this issue.

You may try to change line 271 in __scatter__.m to
>    gnuplot_hack = (numel (x) > 1 && columns (c) == 3
> && strcmp (toolkit, "gnuplot"));

to see if my guess is right. Regards Andy
