this might be an alpha bug or a g77 bug and not an octave
bug, but has anyone seen this:

octave:1> svd([-5 5;5 -5])
 ** On entry to DGESVD parameter number 13 had an illegal value
error: exception encountered in Fortran subroutine dgesvd
error: unrecoverable error in dgesvd
octave:1> 

> uname
OSF1

I'd send my config.h but it is on a system behind a firewall which
isn't very friendly at all (I can't ftp through it).  The fortran
compiler is g77, and the C/C++ compilers are GNU:
> g77 --version
GNU Fortran 0.5.25 19991024 (release)
> g++ --version
2.95.2
