Hi

The latest iteration of the parallel forge package breaks  scripts in which
the function to be called is defined in the same file.

A full script that shows the issue is attached, but the basic structure of the
file is:


function y=fun(x)
 y=x
end

pararrayfun(nproc,@(x)fun(x),x_ar)


error: 'fun' undefined 

Note 1, this worked ok in version 3.1.3.

Note 2, defining the function in separate file solves the problem.
