3 x 0?  Not here:

>> x = 1:3

x =

   1   2   3

>> y = reshape (x, 3)

y =

   1
   2
   3

(I think an MXE build based on changeset 17894:62b76b377749 (or around that
time, anyway from Sunday), on WinXP)

Octave cross compiled on Fedora box, and running on Windows 7:

 

>> x = 1:3;y = reshape (x, 3)

error: reshape: can't reshape 1x3 array to 3x0 array

>> 

 

Octave native compiled and run on the same Windows 7 machine:

>> x = 1:3;y = reshape (x, 3)

y =

 

   1

   2

   3

 

>> 

 

Both were checked out around the same time Saturday dev octave 3.7.7+ . I am now rebuilding the cross compiled version and all of mxe-octave today and will rerun it.
