Details:

boxplot from the forge statistics package lists a wrong handle for the
outliers.

version: statistics *|   1.2.2

offending piece of code in boxplot.m

l315     no2 = nw(end) + [1:size(outliers2_y,2)];


this should be:

l315     no2 = no(end) + [1:size(outliers2_y,2)];


example:

[s,h]=boxplot(exp(randn(100,3)));
h.outliers, h.outliers2
ans = -3.3782
ans = -3.3782


Note that this line has been changed because of bug #38020

So, since apparently sometimes _outliers_ are missing but _outliers2_ do exist
_no_ should be initialized with _nm_.


  no=nm;
  if ~isempty (outliers_y)
    no = nm(end) + [1:size(outliers_y,2)];
    hs.outliers = h(no);
  end
  if ~isempty (outliers2_y)
    no2 = no(end) + [1:size(outliers2_y,2)];
    hs.outliers2 = h(no2);
  end
