The patch was applied to the development branch of Octave in this changeset (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/6be613476e37). It will show up in the next major release of Octave.

Hi Robert,
thank you for reporting this bug. I've attached a patch to solve this.

Thanks again, regards Andy
