Follow-up Comment #4:

I applied Nir's patch to the stable branch here
(http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/7d272300a880).  I made one change
which was to cast the input to double before taking the floor and subtracting
60.


z = floor (double (date)) - 60;

rather than

z = double (floor (date) - 60);


This handles exceptional inputs like uint8(1) which can't handle negative
numbers.

Closing report.
