Problems with scatter3

[Terry Duell]

Hullo All,
I am running Octave 3.2.4 on Fedora 14 x86_64, and experienced error  
messages from scatter3 whilst moving some Matlab code to Octave.
I eventually found mention of a bug report, which I understood had been  
fixed, so grabbed scatter.m, scatter3.m and __scatter__m from Octave 3.4  
(from octave-3.4.0-5.fc15.src.rpm which I had, having previously tried to  
rebuild an FC14 package from it, but came unstuck), but am still  
experiencing the same problems.
Here is what I get when I run one of the examples...

octave:1> [x, y, z] = peaks (20);
octave:2> scatter3 (x(:), y(:), z(:), [], z(:));
error: invalid color specification: flat
error: invalid value for color property "markeredgecolor" (value = flat)
error: set: expecting argument 20 to be a property name
error: set: expecting argument 22 to be a property name
error: set: expecting argument 24 to be a property name
error: called from:
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/plot/__scatter__.m at line 306, column  
11
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/plot/__scatter__.m at line 194, column 9
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/plot/scatter3.m at line 69, column 7

Has this problem been fixed, or is it likely to be something local...i.e.  
on my system?

Cheers,
