[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58127] save -V7 and -append error

[Liang Tang]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #58127 (project octave):

Hi Mike, 

When I look again the writing we have so far.  I do recognize that the default
of two codes are different, i.e., they are not meant to be compatible by
design.  Therefore it really is not meaningful to continue with matlab
compatibility as the focus.  I also would agree to your issue assessment in
priority (low) and severity (minor) for general user population.  

If you agree, then the only issue left is  4.1:
 
a=1;b=1
save -V7 ab.mat a
save -append ab.mat b
load ab.mat
error: load: invalid element type = 8227 

Either the 2nd save needs to be rejected or the load needs to bring the
variables back to the workspace.  If you disagree with this as an issue, I
would recommend to close this item.  Thanks.
