Details:

A very minor issue but mkdir always return status as output even when no
output variable was specified:


>> mkdir ("foo")
ans = 1


while Matlab doesn't.

Not sure what is the preferred way to fix this, one being:


[sts, msg, msgid] = mkdir_recur (parent, [dirname, ext]);
if (nargout)
  status = sts;
endif
