Details:

There is an automatic buildbot which compiles the latest Octave development
version and then runs the test suite.  See
http://buildbot.octave.org:8010/waterfall.

I've resolved two of the errors by inspecting the logfiles.  But for the
others I need some help because I don't have a Mac computer.

I'm hoping someone who can build on Mac OS X can be a partner for me on this
bug report and run tests as I need them so we can reduce the number of failing
tests from 15, to potentially 0.

The first function I want to try and fix is str2double which I think is
causing several other failures.

Could someone run the following code on a Mac with a newly compiled version of
the Octave development code?


diary diary1.txt
str = char ("1", "2 3", "4i")
size (str)
double (str)
y = str2double (str)
size (y)
diary off


Upload the diary file "diary1.txt" to this bug report and I'll investigate.
