Re: 2.1.39 : No more argn ?

[Paul Kienzle]

I can confirm that argn doesn't work for me in 2.1.38 or 2.1.36, but the code
for processing it is still in ov-usr-fcn.cc.  The last working version is 
2.1.35.

octave:1> function f, nargin, end
octave:2> f(1)
nargin = 1
octave:3> x=1;
octave:4> f(x)
nargin = 1
octave:5> function f, argn, end
octave:6> f(x)
error: `argn' undefined near line 1 column 13
error: called from `f'

Presumably removing the initializer for arg_nm in the tree_index_expression 
constructor
is the source of the problem.  See the following diff:
