With the script

n = 5e3; d = 1e-2;
for i = 1:100
  s = sprand(n,n,d);
  inx = find(s);
  if (length(find(s<0)) != 0)
    error ("shouldn't happen");
  endif
endfor

and the head of the repository I can't generate this error. I haven't
seen this error in the past either, so I can't explain. As I can't
generate the same error either its a bit difficult to fix it.
