[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57348] [octave forge] (statistics) package fails installation because of a parse error in linkage.m

[John Donoghue]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #57348 (project octave):

Likely related, I get some failures in tests of the statistcs package when
testing kolmogorov_smirnov_test.

The issue is that str2func used to error if attempting to assign to an invalid
function name, but now doesnt

ie:

str2func('invalid_func_name')

Doesnt error

the kolmogorov_smirnov_test was relying on catching the error to and decide
which function name to use.
