Details:

I get a very strange message when running a very simple command.  This is only
on the development branch--the stable and gui-release trees are fine.


run-octave -f
edit strfind.cc
error: invalid meta.package indexing
error: called from:
error:   /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/scripts/strings/index.m at
line 59, column 5
error:   /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/scripts/strings/rindex.m at
line 50, column 5
error:   /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-dev/scripts/miscellaneous/edit.m
at line 274, column 9


The problem is somehow specifically related to using the filename 'strfind.cc'
because I can use other filenames such as 'data.cc' without problem.
