The problem was actually more with nargchk which should have returned a scalar struct, instead of an array struct.  I patched nargchk, nargoutchk, and error in this changeset (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/4972eb61c6d6).

To access the fix you will need to build from the development sources.  Instructions for downloading are here (http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/download.html).

For example the call:

error(nargchk(1, 5, 4, 'struct'))

Returns with a

error: invalid conversion of multidimensional struct to scalar struct

The nargchk set the return value to struct ([]);

And this "crashes" the error call.
