The following functions have been moved from Octave Forge packages to
Octave but are still present in the Octave Forge SVN archive:

  erfcx
  prctile
  strtrim
  textread

I also noticed a few other functions like csvread, csvwrite, and
dlmwrite that have been moved from Octave Forge packages to Octave and
removed from the Octave Forge SVN, but are still present in the
current released package.  I think that makes sense for now, but are
there plans to release updated packages once Octave 3.4 is released?

Now that Octave will warn if a function from a package hides a core
function, these duplicate functions will be noticed and likely
generate some noise on the mailing lists.  Also, there may be more,
these are just ones that were brought to my attention.

I know, this is where Jordi will chime in and say that we need better
integration of Octave Forge and Octave development and
distribution...  :-)

Thanks,
