This is a known problem in Matlab 5.3.1- it seems to be fixed in Matlab 6
which has just been installed- works for me. To access Matlab 6 and Matlab
6 mex now:
add matlab
mex -ver 6.0.0 yprime.c
matlab -ver 6.0.0

PS- get yprime.c from the matlab_v6.0.0 locker- it seems to be different
from the version in the matlab_v5.3.1 locker.
