Follow-up Comment #5:

Seems like an over sight when I implemented the single precision type. This
type of feature needs a bit of test with files passed back and forth between
Octave and Matlab to ensure that the feature is implemented in a compatible
manner. I no loner have access to matlab though with the Mat-files you
attached I made a first attempt at implementing this feature with the attached
patch.

There is quite a bit of code duplication and a few C++ templates could
probably clean this up a bit, but it seems to work for me.

Could you test this code a bit more extensively with files passed from Matlab
to Octave and vis-a-versa and see if it works correctly

D.
