I think the fixed point and cyclgen/cyclpoly bugs are fixed...

What new concatenation method? Do you mean "cat", in that
case it can be argued that neither does the galois or
fixed point types. In any case either if these are implemented
there is nothing to stop a user using "[]" and getting the
wrong result, so implementing these functions just gives a=20
false sense of security.... Still need to get "[]" fixed
within octave itself..
