Apologies for posting to the wrong list indeed.

The warnings you refer to above were not what I was referring to in the
previous email: it was the compilation that gave an error related to
some curly brackets. I'm not sure if it influences the functions
themselfs, but the documentation doesn't 'work' anymore.

Anyway, this is not the right place to post this. I will work with the
previous statistics package, wait a while or switch back to the stable
octave release. 

thanks for the clarification.
