Bug: Function Handles as Default Arguments

[Bill Denney]

Hi,

I was working on some code tonight where I was wanting to use some 
default arguments, and I had some trouble with it, so I tried to find 
some examples.  I went looking into the tests directory, and I noticed 
that there were no tests for the default arguments, so I put some in 
(and modified the tests that were already there so that they would work 
with a normal test call, i.e. test test_args).

When I was putting them in, I found that Octave doesn't like function 
handles as default arguments.  It gives a different error for normal 
function handles and anonymous handles.

Attached is a changeset that demonstrates these errors (and changes the 
form of test_args to be testable from the command line).

Have a good day,

Bill
