Also through the "auto_add" parameter of the octave_value::subsref that 
was apparently added by Jaroslav.  That's set to true in one case in 
tree_index_expression::lvalue.

Given the comments in Array.h:

  // Indexing with possible resizing and fill
  // FIXME -- this is really a corner case, that should better be
  // handled directly in liboctinterp.

maybe we should fix libinterp now so that it handles the special cases 
and eliminate them from the Array class index functions?
