    _______________________________________________________

Details:

In octave-forge package optim-1.2.2 at line 110, it is clear that

xi = diag (x);

contains a typo. The code, I believe should read

xi = diag (xi);

As is, the function powell complains when a initial direction is given, as
opposed to being left out with default parameters.
