Thanks for the suggestion. I am preparing right now a new version of
the package that will fix this bug [1].
The patch that I introduced is kind of a hack and it would be good if the
upstream author could cope with the issue in a proper way. I will
eventually fill a bug report against the Octave-Forge package nan.
