    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The following code causes a segmentation fault in both the development code
and octave 3.0.5.

x = [-8:0.4:8]';
surfc(x)

I realize this is not the correct way to call surfc, but this isn't a reason
to segfault.  It seems that the m-file should at least perform minimal
validity testing on its arguments and complain rather than abort.
