By noting that they are shadowing some functions? If you don't want that, put packages at the end of the loadpath (no idea where they arecurrently).
The nan package is supposed to shadow the Octave functions and so the default behavior of pkg was decide last year to be to add them at the front of the load path.
In fact the build process for the octave-forge web pages in fact identifies all of the shadowed functions.. If its an issue I suppose they might be published.Look in the documentation :) Okay, seriously: is it really worth the effort to check the loadpath for shadowed stuff? I actually think that's not an easy task: what if a package shadows another package? The best way to check is probably when loading packages, but this will increase startup time.
