    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Matlab and Octave 3.2.4 produce the following:
+verbatim
mod(2.1,0.1)
ans = 0


The development version of Octave produces:

mod(2.1,0.1)
ans =  0.100000


This bug was initially reported under bug #31514.  It is being broken out
because it is a different issue than that reported under #31514.
