Consider:

help test_classdef.test_classdef

error: unknown package 'test_classdef'
error: called from
    <unknown>


MWE: place the attached "test_classdef.m" inside a directory called
"@test_classdef".

Expected results: the help for the constructor for the class.  That is,
something different from "help test_classdef" (which correctly gives the class
help).  MWE has different docstrings for each.

Today's tip.  Also on 6.4.0 (have not tested on 7.1.0) which gives the same:

help test_classdef.test_classdef
error: unknown package 'test_classdef'
error: called from
    <unknown>
    help at line 102 column 20
