With the released package version 0.8.5 or the latest sources from hg?

Do you expect that the issue is macOS- and/or clang-specific? Has anyone
other than Sebastian had this problem?

In bug #48380, there is a comment saying that the odepkg hg sources work
fine against Octave default [1]. But of course this is with gcc.

There is a patch in mxe-octave for odepkg [2], presumably containing
things that have been fixed in hg but not yet released.
