problems running dynare 4.4.3 in octave 4.0.0

Hi dear Dynare friends I am trying to run Dynare in octave 4.0.0, but the answer is as follows,

warning: Octave language extension used: bare newline inside parentheses near line 37 offile C:\octave-4.0.0\shar
e\octave\4.0.0\m\help\which.m

however, the steady state values are computed:

Dynare does not yet support Octave 4. You can check the status at https://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare/issues/1113

ok, I understand the point, bur there is any usable Octave version Dynare can work with?

Thanks

Great!! Dynare 4.4.3 in Octave 3.8.2 worked very good at calibrating and simulating a model.

Now I am trying to perform Bayes stimation and a new error reads:

***MESSAGE FROM ROUTINE D9LGIT IN LIBRARY SLATEC.
***FATAL ERROR, PROG ABORTED, TRACEBACK REQUESTED
* NO CONVERGENCE IN 200 TERMS OF CONTINUED FRACTION
* ERROR NUMBER = 3

***JOB ABORT DUE TO FATAL ERROR.
0 ERROR MESSAGE SUMMARY
LIBRARY SUBROUTINE MESSAGE START NERR LEVEL COUNT

error: Due to a bug in Octave, you must choose other values for mean and/or variance of your prior on thetinf, or

This is an Octave problem. Octave cannot compute the prior for the parameter thetinf with the given parameters. You need to adjust them
