 ## Given an @var{n*n} matrix polynomial

 ## @address@hidden(s) = @var{C0} + @var{C1} s + @dots{} + @var{Cl} s^l}

 ## @code{polyeig} solves the eigenvalue problem

 ##
 ## Note that the eigenvalues @var{z} are the zeros of the matrix polynomial.
 ## @var{z} is a row vector with @var{n*l} elements.  @var{v} is a matrix
 ## (@var{n} x @address@hidden) with columns that correspond to the
 ## eigenvectors.
