Michael,

This works for me on MinGW using a cross-built binary from today (12/2/13).

If you don't experience bug #40743 while running sparse.tst, then you won't have the issue. I believe there might be a difference on my MSVC-built octave where some results are NaN instead of Inf, triggering the bugs.
