Please don't use varargin or varargout for all values unless necessary. 
 For example, in nlinfit, it appears that the first four arguments are 
always x, y, modelfun, and beta0.  If that's correct, then please write

  function ... = nlinfit (x, y, modelfun, beta0, varargin)

instead of using only varargin.  That will make the rest of the function 
a little easier to follow.

Thanks,
