qp() lambdas -- fewer than constraints?

[fork]

Hi all,

I am trying to debug some code that uses sqp(), and I get the following 
error:

error: sqp: operator *: nonconformant arguments (op1 is 9x9, op2 is 6x1) ...
stopped in C:\Software\Octave-
3.7.2+\share\octave\3.7.2+\m\optimization\sqp.m at line 451
451:       t = ((A_new - A)'*lambda);

I looked at the source for sqp, and on line 407, there is a call to qp() 
that sets the value for lambda. In this problem, there are three equality 
constraints and six inequality constraints, all of which I verified are 
passed to qp(), but lambda has a dimension of 6x1. 

Seems like a bug? Any ideas?

The code driving all this could be shared, but it is pretty convoluted (I 
would put it on a github snippet or something if neccessary).  Here is some 
data from the debugging session, though.

 [p, obj_qp, INFO, lambda] = qp (x
                                    , B # H
                                    , c # q
                                    , F # equality A
                                    , g # equality b
                                    , [] # lb
                                    , [] # ub
                                    , d  # A_lb
                                    , C  # A_in
                                    , Inf (size (d) # A_ub
                                   ));
