Hi Érico,

this functions belongs to an octave package (communications) so you
should have reported it to the octave-forge mailing list. Anyway,
you're using a quite old version of octave and communications package.
With octave 3.6.1 and communications 1.1.1 I don't get any error:

ans =
{
  [1,1] = 0
  [1,2] =  1
}


You should upgrade.
