bug in 2.1.57 using save/load -mat-binary

[Daniel Heiserer]

Hi,

>version
ans = 2.1.57

seems to be not able to save data correctly if the name is longer then 
32 characters. If the data is reread into octave the name is truncated 
to 32 characters.
"-mat4-binary" as well as the octave file format seem to work.

best regards daniel
