Sounds like a good choice -- improved functionality (can now override an
.oct file with an .m file), improved compatability (with MATLAB, and
with the way search works for PATH too) are a plus; potential backward
incompatability and delaying a standard version of kpathsearch seem like
small costs/risks, and worth taking.  

Thanks for creating and continuing to move Octave forward, John.  /Jskud
