I fixed this as well as generally cleaning up the function in this changeset (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/45165d6c4738). The change will be available in the next major release of Octave (3.8) or you can grab the m-file from the Octave development sources under Mercurial.

E.g.

octave:1> unzip("example.xlsx")
warning: unrecognized file type, .xlsx

while matlab do it

>> unzip('example.xlsx')
>>


would make https://github.com/markuman/xlsxread/ also work on windows and mac.
