[Markus Mützel]

Update of bug #62094 (project octave):

                 Release:                   6.4.0 => 7.0.90

Follow-up Comment #3:

Looks good to me.
Should we also add a BIST for this?
Wolfram Alpha's result:

0.004975165426584041424107678772130370844339804970029398932304779... +

Octave's result with your change:

>> format long
>> log1p(0.1i)
ans =  4.975165426584042e-03 + 9.966865249116204e-02i


That's close enough imho.
