Details:

For a directory structure like

data
-v0
-v1
-v...
-vn

When I ask for a list of the v* folders with
>>fold_struct=dir('data/v*') 

If there is only one folder (eg. v0) then dir returns the subfolders of v0
instead of a list with just v0.

If there is more than one folder, then dir('data/v*') returns the struct array
with v0 v1 v2 ... vn.
