OK, I tracked down the problem which seems to have been in cell2cell which is a 
function from the "miscellaneous" package (i.e. not in Octave core, so sorry 
for 
the noise on the Octave ML)

whith the current version of cell2cell the following happens:

------------
>> function prova ()
m = 1; n = 1;
plabels = cell2cell (num2cell ((1:n).'), 1);
m
endfunction
>> prova
error: `m' undefined near line 4 column 1
error: called from:
error:   ?unknown? at line 4, column 1
>> 
------------

if I apply the attached patch I get, instead

------------
>> function prova ()
m = 1; n = 1;
plabels = cell2cell (num2cell ((1:n).'), 1);
m
endfunction
>> prova
m =  1
>> 
-------------



Does anyone object if I 

1) commit this patch
2) bump the version number in "miscelaneous" and "optim"
3) increase the version number for the dependency on "miscellaneous" in "optim"
