Hi Maintainer

Octave-statistics fails its autopkgtests on i386 with the following error:

[inst/ttest.m]
>>>>> /tmp/autopkgtest.iYGNCe/build.raS/src/inst/ttest.m
***** test
 x = 8:0.1:12;
 [h, pval, ci] = ttest (x, 10);
 assert (h, 0)
 assert (pval, 1, 10*eps)
 assert (ci, [9.6219 10.3781], 1E-5)
 [h, pval, ci0] = ttest (x, 0);
 assert (h, 1)
 assert (pval, 0)
 assert (ci0, ci)
 [h, pval, ci] = ttest (x, 10, "tail", "right", "dim", 2, "alpha", 0.05);
 assert (h, 0)
 assert (pval, 0.5, 10*eps)
 assert (ci, [9.68498 Inf], 1E-5)
!!!!! test failed
ASSERT errors for:  assert (ci0,ci)

  Location  |  Observed  |  Expected  |  Reason
    (2)        10.3781      10.3781      Abs err 1.7764e-15 exceeds tol 
0 by 2e-15
1 test, 0 passed, 0 known failure, 0 skipped

As far as I can tell, this is not a new failure, and increasing the 
error tolerance may be the solution here.
