It sounds like when you copied it, it got some return character characters
in it - how did you create the script file ?

Octave is using 4.4 is using msys in windows to provide the unix commands,
and so is using the emulated file structure from that which translates the
/usr to the octave install directory,
So /usr/include is really the octaveinstalldir/include
