Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  This is a regression from 5.2 and I marked it as such and raised
the severity.  jwe has been working on completely overhauling function handles
in Octave.  It is likely that when that set of changes is checked in this will
be fixed.  I'm add him to the CC list just in case.

The problem is not with arrayfun, but with function handles.  Here is even
simpler code to demonstrate the issue.  Notice how the handle is not printed
out correctly, and subsequently fails to work.


s = "x";
a.(s) = [e pi];
f = @(x) a.(s)(x)
f =

@(x) a. (x)

f(1)
error: 's' undefined near line 1, column 1
