That was a bug in Scilab build process under Ubuntu. The linker packaged
in Ubuntu is enabling the --as-needed option as default.
For some reasons, libscilab.so and libscilab-cli.so did not have this
option set.
I fixed that in commit c4fa8db4c4e207ee89a0b5cd8cd5b66b788dee39
It should now work in the current nightly builds.
