Dear Octave maintainers,

when I recently had to use cross correlations in a project, I found
that the xcorr2 function (especially using the "coeff" option) in the
signal package of Octave does not yield correct results and
implemented it quick and dirty myself. My code yields the same result
as the matlab function.

Referring to this state of the source:

http://sourceforge.net/p/octave/signal/ci/0e2141a26533942734b0d8e1a096eb4d5213fd9d/tree/inst/xcorr2.m

the lines 69-71 and 94-98 would need to be replaced. (I highlight this
in the source appended to this mail.)

I don't have the time to understand your bug tracking system, but I
would love to help you fix this function (which is very important in
scientific computing). I would therefore be glad, if you forwarded my
code to whom it may concern although I do not follow protocol.


Cheers,

Benjamin
