That's the real question.  I realize I can use squeeze, but several 
members of our lab here are getting more and more irritated with 
MATLAB's draconian (if not completely procrustean) licensing, and
Octave seems to "just work" in many ways; any little bit that helps 
would make it so much easier to just dropkick MATLAB.  I'm using 
2.1.69, by the way; Fedora comes with Octave now you know, so more 
folks might be using it.  I did have to upgrade to get around the 
broken lapack bug.  Don't know about Fedora core 4. (I'm on 3).

So the general question is, if MATLAB does it, can we expect Octave to 
do it?
