It's not the same as loading automatically by default, but

  pkg install -auto ...

at least spares the effort of making an entry in ~/.octaverc.

To do this is also free to the decision of the user. I've heard that
even that is deprecated, but the reason is obscure to me. I'd much
prefer to have this easy way available.
