Both seem to work in 3.0.3 and 3.1.55+ for me with the gnuplot backend. 
I suspect therefore you are using the jhandles backend and perhaps this 
points to an error in the jhandles package.. Try running "pkg unload  
jhandles" and try again..

In any case if jhandles is at fault I'm not sure it will ever be fixed 
as jhandles is really for 3.0.x versions of Octave and the original 
author is working on integrating his work directly in Octave.
