index using end

[asb]

octave doesn't recognize end as an index
Example:
>> foo=[1 2 3]
foo =

   1   2   3

>> foo(end)
error: 'a' undefined near line 9 column 12
error: called from
    end at line 9 column 5
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from
    end at line 9 column 5
error: evaluating argument list element number 1

In addition, the library function index also fails:
>> img_file
img_file = dti.nii
>> index(img_file,".",directon="last")
error: 'a' undefined near line 9 column 12
error: called from
    end at line 9 column 5
    index at line 79 column 9
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from
    end at line 9 column 5
    index at line 79 column 9
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from
    index at line 79 column 9

I found an old message about this.  Has this just not been implemented yet,
or is there a patch?
