Details:

I define:

function foo(varargin)
__varval__(".argn.")
nargin
inputname(1)
inputname(2)


If I call foo(5,3), I get the expected behavior where inputname(1) and
inputname(2) both evaluate to "".

octave-cli-3.8.1> foo(5,3)
ans = 
{
  [1,1] = 5
  [2,1] = 3
}
ans =  2
ans = 
ans = 

If I define c={5 3} and call foo(c{:}) I expect to get the same thing.  But
instead:

octave-cli-3.8.1> c={5 3}; foo(c{:})
ans = 
{
  [1,1] = c {:}
}
ans =  2
ans = 
error: foo: A(I): index out of bounds; value 2 out of bound 1
error: called from:
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/3.8.1/m/miscellaneous/inputname.m at line 31,
column 7


I thought this might be fixed by bug #35497.  Tried incorporating the
development version of oct-obj.h.  However, I received same results.
