Hello.

eye(1) stops octave as follows.

octave:1> eye(1)
error: caught SIGSEGV -- stopping myself...

%

eye(2) and eye(0) work as follows.

octave:1> eye(2)
ans =

  1  0
  0  1

octave:2> eye(0)
ans =

[]


Is this a bug of octave?

When eye(n) is used, n must be checked whether 1 or not.

I am using binary file in Octave, version 0.72. tar-file.
Machines are Sun SPARC, sunOS-4.1.1.
                              ^^^^^^
When octave starts, the following comment appears.

ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.1.6 has older revision than
expected 7

Is this the cause?
