It's part of Octave Forge so I'm sending this e-mail to that mailing
list. Also, it's author and maintainer is Alois Scholoegl to whom I'm
also sending this e-mail.

I believe this is related to

The nan package does shadow (replaces) all those core functions. Do
you understand what that means? And no, it's not possible to remove
those warnings other than changing the octave source.
