I would be interested in the answer to this question as well.

Part of the motivation for a PDL::Matlab module was to enable
some sort of automated translation between Matlab and PDL
syntax and maybe between data types.

However, the most difficult part of any conversion process is
bound to be the conversion of the many builtin Matlab routines:
there are many of them and a single routine can have many
different outputs depending on the number and type of the
input arguments, and sometimes the algorithm being used is
not known in detail enough to substitute without much work.
