It's not just for testing. I was using it in this cellular automata
physics simulator. Please excuse the messy code;
http://pastebin.com/17KXGzZa . On my Debian Linux installation of Octave
and gnuplot, the script runs fine although right now it runs nearly
instantly as I don't have any timer breaks.

As mentioned before, I get the error in terminal.txt (have you looked
at it yet?) or something similar regardless of whether or not I have X11
installed and running or not. I've gone through 4 clean Cygwin
installations trying to figure out what the problem was and I just got
tired of re-downloading things. If you remove X11 from your cygwin
installation, you will see that your terminal output still does not
produce a crash.
Yes, you are correct I do not have X11 installed (right now) but that
shouldn't make octave crash and produce a dump when running the image
function.
