You are creating a BAIJ matrix with the nonzero pattern defined by (rows,cols), 
where each entry of the matrix is a 2x2 block, in your case
           [ re(a_ij) -im(a_ij) ]
           [ im(a_ij)  re(a_ij) ]

So the matrix you are creating is not this one
                [re(A) -im(A)]
                [imA)   re(A)]
but the one resulting from a perfect shuffle permutation. That's why you are 
not seeing a 2x2 block structure for the whole matrix.
