bug in char, str2mat and strvcat behaviour?

[David Bateman]

To fix the behavior of char in Octave the convert_to_str method of the 
octave_value class needs to be changed. However, that will have other 
implications, particularly for mixed type operation. Like what does 
matlab return for

char(50,50,[],50)
char([50;50;[],50])
[50;"2";"";"2"]
