I just tried "make check" from the tests directory and ...

        test_bc_overloads.m .................................... PASS  451/451 

But from the root of my archive I still get ...

        test_bc_overloads.m .................................... PASS  225/451  
FAIL 226

I'd guess that if one test can be resolved the others will be as well.

The first failure is ...

 378 >>>>> processing test_bc_overloads
 379   ***** assert ((@tbcover) (ex.double, ex.double), "double")
 380 !!!!! test failed
 381 assert ((@tbcover) (ex.double, ex.double),"double") expected
 382 double
 383 but got
 384 none
 385 shared variables {
 386   ex =
 387   {
 388     double =  1
 389     single =  1
 390     logical =  1
 391     char = char
 392     int8 = 1
 393     int16 = 1
 394     int32 = 1
 395     int64 = 1
 396     uint8 = 1
 397     uint16 = 1
 398     uint32 = 1
 399     uint64 = 1
 400     cell = {}(0x0)
 401     struct =
 402     {
 403       1x1 struct array containing the fields:
 404 
 405     }
 406 
 407     function_handle =
 408 
 409 numel
 410 
 411   }
 412 
 413 }

For the other tests, I attached the log to a prior email. While it hasn't 
posted to the list yet, both you and Jaroslav should have received it.
