A good project. Since this functionality is contained in LAPACK, you
should preferably wrap the LAPACK calls (we employ BLAS/LAPACK for
most of the dense linear algebra) in a class, then extend the eig
builtin to provide the functionality in a way compatible with MATLAB.

Unless you have already done so, I think a good way to start is to try
to compile a development snapshot of Octave.
