The infinite "Welcome to Octave" window seems to be caused by

Whoohoo! Thanks Ed.
The first thing I notice is that launching Octave creates an X window
and the GUI docks to that Window instead of the screen. No problem,
just undock the GUI...
But I'm having some problems. When I type commands in the Command
Window nothing seems to happen, until I move the window position bar up
and down then the results appear.
The GUI window doesn't behave so well with the desktop. Sometimes when
I grab the top bar to move the window it gets stuck on the screen.
Sometimes it doesn't move higher than some other window that had
previous focus.
I can't seem to change the width of the command window either.
I think all these problems might go back to the Qt build and all those
warnings I was getting.
Well, got it to run. That's a start.
