sizemax() and 64-bit systems

[Mike Miller]

I have octave on a few 64-bit Linux machines (versions 3.0.5, 3.2.3, 
3.2.4; I won't bother listing additional details unless they turn out to 
be important).  The basic issue is that it seems that none of those 
machines has sizemax() installed, but docs on the web say that sizemax() 
is a built-in function -- does that mean that sizemax() wasn't available 
in those versions?  This is what I see:

octave:1> sizemax()
error: `sizemax' undefined near line 1 column 1
octave:2> help sizemax
error: help: `sizemax' not found

Is there another way to get the sizemax() functionality?  I'm trying to 
find out for these machines what is the largest number of elements per 
matrix.  Is there a way to figure it out from octave_config_info?

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Mike
