Marking as a feature request.  The "matlab compatibility" tag has a narrow meaning here.  It's reserved for things that work in work in reasonable but different ways in both Octave and Matlab.  Since this is something that doesn't yet work, I consider it a request for a new feature.

confirmed. according to the Matlab help, the function behavior was expanded in 2014
https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/round.html

"Behavior changed in R2014b

In R2014b, these syntaxes were added to round to any number of decimal or significant digits and to round duration values:

Y = round(X,N)
Y = round(X,N,type)
Y = round(t) 
Y = round(t,unit)  
Older versions of MATLAB® support only this syntax, which rounds to the nearest integer:

Y = round(X) "

Confirmed.

In the mapping package there's a roundn() that accepts the first two arguments; maybe that can help you somewhat.
