Instead, it seems that we could define octave_idx_type to be ssize_t (or ptrdiff_t, I think they are equivalent in practice). Then things like fread, fwrite, or simple element-by-element array operations that don't require BLAS or LAPACK functions could work on larger arrays.This appears to be a significant improvement.
This would also fix numel() calls returning overflown values on big matrices under 64-bit systems too.
