Builds fine under MSVC (with minor patch to integrate C++ versions
of scripts like mkoctfile...).

Only one test failure detected in nchoosek.m, due to tolerance:

  ***** assert (nchoosek(100,45), bincoeff(100,45), -1e-14)
!!!!! test failed
error: assert (nchoosek (100, 45),bincoeff (100, 45),-1e-14) expected
6.1448e+028
but got
6.1448e+028
maximum relative error 8.51718e-014 exceeds tolerance 1e-014
