Follow-up Comment #6, bug #32088 (project octave):

I think it would be better to do this by changing the way __which__ works
instead of playing tricks with the load path.

In Matlab, what exactly does which -all find, and does the order of the
results matter?  Does it find subfucntions in the current scope, or all
possible subfunctions (I don't think that is reasonable, as it means parsing
every function on the load path).  

What does it do for


which -all @foo/bar


Does it find every @foo/bar.m file on the path if there are multiple @foo
directories?

What about


which -all foo>bar


for looking up subfunctions?

I'm not sure this will make it into 3.4, but you do have a workaround with
the function you've written.
