Testing of the normfit function (version 1.6.0 of the statistics package) is
failing on my Debian amd64 system, with the following error:


octave:1>
octave:2> test normfit
***** test
 load lightbulb
 idx = find (lightbulb(:,2) == 0);
 censoring = lightbulb(idx,3) == 1;
 [muHat, sigmaHat] = normfit (lightbulb(idx,1), [], censoring);
 assert (muHat, 9496.595867378575, 1e-12);
 assert (sigmaHat, 3064.021012796456, 1e-12);
!!!!! test failed
ASSERT errors for:  assert (muHat,9496.595867378575,1e-12)

  Location  |  Observed  |  Expected  |  Reason

by 8e-13


The patch attached to this bug report fixes the problem for me.
