Details:

in Cygwin 1.7.9 (a recent fresh install including Octave-3.4.0 and
GraphicMagick-1.3.12)

In MATLAB(7.10.0.499 (R2010a)), when calling imread the following type of call
is supported:

#verbatim#
imgpath='images/file';
imread(imgpath,'gif','frames','all');


This is useful for the case where the image's path does not contain an
extension, but it is obtained after an image path variable is set, say with
imginfo.  Could this type of imread call be supported for this reason, and
also for compatibility with code written in MATLAB?
