Subject: Strange problem using the `detrend' function

Hi list,

I've got a question regarding the `detrend' function I use very often in my 
routines. I recently upgraded to Fedora Core 3 Linux and all of a sudden the 
`detrend' function hangs on first invocation.

I did the following to track down the problem:

1. Started octave
2. detrend(rand(10, 1));  this hangs
3. press CTRL+C
4. detrend(rand(10, 1));  this succeeds

All subsequent detrend invocations succeeds only not the first one. 
Furthermore, when specifying the P parameter e.g. detrend(rand(10,1), 2) it 
always hangs, regardless invocation order.

The versions I tried with:

Octave 2.1.57 and 2.1.62

configured with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/octave --enable-shared 
--enable-dl --enable-rpath

Any ideas? Thanx in advance!

Kind regards,

Paul Koster
