Whoops, I forgot to say I'm using "version = 1.1.0" on "computer =
hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.01". Did I say 1.1.0 ?  Stupid me, I forgot I was still
using the old version! Sorry about that. I've asked our systems guy to
install the new one right away.

I also apologize for not using a formal bug report. I was assuming that I
did something wrong or misunderstood normal octave behaviour. In future
I'll try to remember to use Octave's bug_report command. I'll also try to
remember to check the bug reports on the octave web site -- in this case
the 1995 archives contained two reports (#26,29) on the nargin problem.

Thanks for the great support!
