Hmmm... I can't find their documentation on the MatLab website. The
only reference to the dilate/erode functions is in the list of changes
for version 2.2.2 (R12). Then, on the list of changes for 3.0 (R12+)
they mention the release of the functions imdilate/imerode and never
again on the list of changes do they mention the old functions.
