| Testing in Octave 3.0.5:
| ------------------------
|
| octave:1> h1 = mylib_init()
| h1 = 0
| octave:2> h2 = mylib_init()
| h2 =  1
| octave:3> mylib_destroy(h1)
| octave:4> mylib_destroy(h2)
|
|
| Testing in octave 3.2.0:
| ------------------------
|
| octave:1> h1 = mylib_init()
| h1 = 0
| octave:2> h2 = mylib_init()
| h2 =  1
| octave:3> mylib_destroy(h1)
| error: mylib_destroy: handle '0' does not exist!
| octave:3> mylib_destroy(h2)
| error: mylib_destroy: handle '1' does not exist!

I can't duplicate this problem with Octave 3.2.0 on my system.
