Yes, I can now independently corroborate this (2.1.42):
 
* * *
 
>> t  
a = 1
>>0
userin = 0
>> t
a = 1
>>asdf
userin = []
>>t   
a = 1
>>123sdaf
userin = []
userin = []
parse error:
>>> load -force testfile.dat
                        ^
parse error:
>>> load -force testfile.dat
                         ^
error: evaluating while command near line 26, column 1
error: called from `t' in file `/octave_files/t.m'
>> 

* * *
Note -- I used t.m instead of test.m, which is a "forge" function.

        Okay to make everyones life easier i have isolated the problem:
        
        i have written a new function that has the same problem:
        %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
        function test
        a=1
        while a==1
        loadline=['load -force testfile.dat'];
        eval(loadline);
        userin=input('>>','s');
        userin=str2num(userin)
        if userin==0
        return
        end
        end
        %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
        
        just create the file testfile.dat containing any old stuff then run this
        function. Test different strings...a string prefixed by a number 
produces an
        error.
