Follow-up Comment #16:

This is really a problem with R and Python.  Matlab objects are always at
least 2-D.  Even an empty object is implemented as a 2-D 0x0 object.  Hence,
when the file is read in by Matlab and written back out again it generates a
proper scalar object which is 2-D 1x1.

We can help out our open source friends though since the code change is
minimal.  I made the change on the stable branch in this changeset
(http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/94d791a03737).  It will be part
of the 3.8.2 bug fix release.
