As you note, there is some support for them at the liboctave level.  I
don't think that's so strange.  It just means that some, but not all,
of the work has been done.

More than I could do the time I last worked on it, and more than
anyone else has done since?  :-/

BTW, the Octave sources mailing list is for posting source code.  For
general discussion, try the help-octave mailing list instead.

Thanks,
