[OctDev] strcmp problem in interp1

[David B. <Dav...@mo...>]

There is a problem in interp1 where if the fifth argument is not
defined it is given the value NaN. strcmp is then called as

strcmp(NaN, "extrap")

which as of 2.1.59 is not valid... Are there other places this occurs?
Should I fix it or would you like to do it Paul? This is a rather nasty
bug with the latest versions of octave and octave-forge, so does it imply
a rapid release being needed?

Cheers
David
