For further comparison I am running octave in place (no installation). I get 
(in Fedora 30)

$ ./run-octave -q
octave:1> addpath ~/tmp/chebfun/chebfun-master
octave:2> x = chebfun('x')
error: octave_base_value::bool_value(): wrong type argument 'sq_string'

If I try to get the backtrace it fails right when entering the line

[f.funs, f.domain] = chebfun.constructor(op, dom, data, pref);

Using "Step in" when debugging gives the above error message. it does not even 
enter the function.

For reference I am using gcc 9.1.1
