I fixed this on the stable branch here (https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/fc73dafece57).

Closing report.

That makes sense.  It should follow the same syntax as for calc_rev.  So


  F77_XFCN (zggev, ZGGEV, (F77_CONST_CHAR_ARG2 ("N", 1),
                           F77_CONST_CHAR_ARG2 (calc_rev ? "V" : "N", 1),


should be


  F77_XFCN (zggev, ZGGEV, (F77_CONST_CHAR_ARG2 (calc_lev ? "V" : "N", 1),
                           F77_CONST_CHAR_ARG2 (calc_rev ? "V" : "N", 1),

The problem is in the first argument passed to zggev (EIG.cc). It should be


F77_CONST_CHAR_ARG2 (calc_lev ? "V" : "N", 1)


(two occurrences).

Confirmed.  I've attached a simple test script to illustrate the problem.


A = magic(4);
B = complex (magic(4), magic(4));
[v,l,w] = eig (A,B)


I tested back to Octave version 4.2.1 and this problem has always been present.  Apparently there was not a test for this in the test suite.

Calling eig function with the following form

[V, LAMBDA, W] = eig (A, B)

returns a zero matrix on W when the inputs are complex.

This problem doesn't occur with qz function
