Follow-up Comment #1:



As far as I know, passing extra arguments is a deprecated and undocumented
feature in Matlab.

The Matlab documentation also recommends using a anonymous functions or
function handle to bind the extra parameters 
of the function passed to the solver.

see here <http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/ode15s.html>

I really don't think there is any good reason for us to support 
this old syntax if TMW is abandoning it as well.

Did something in the Octave ode15s docs lead you to think that this would
work? If so we should fix the docs, otherwise this is rather a feature request
than a bug.
