Thanks everyone for the input.  It seems like more trouble than it's worth
so I left in place the current behavior and just fixed the compatibility
issue for N < 1.  See changeset
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/16b9ec39ff46.

It appears to me that the following changesets introduced the vector behavior of linspace:

  http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/e087d7c77ff9
  http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/3429c956de6f

I was unable to find any discussion of this change. I'd bet that Jaroslav just thought it was a good thing to do and made the changes without really consulting anyone else. I wonder if there is much code that depends on this feature. Do we need it for Octave? Is it worth keeping?
