Details:
It appears that Matlab may have changed their precedence order when there are
multiple matches for a name. According to Octave's documentation, the
precedence order is
variable, built-in function, oct-file, directory, file, class.
It would appear from Matlab's documentation that the new order is
variable, directory, built-in function, oct-file, file, class.
This should be tested, perhas with a mex file "abc.mex" and a directory "abc"
in the current directory and then executing
x = exist ('abc')
to see the return code.
