To be clear, I do not have either matlab or octave. I just glanced at the code and it seemed to do something along the lines of what your posting might have done when instead `:results graphics :file my.png' is given.  A critical piece is that org-babel-insert-result needs to have a nil result to avoid overwriting the file given in `:file my.png' as it seems to do for Neil.  I didn't see how that would happen for the example you gave.

Sorry if this was misdirection.
