This is the wrong approach as it doesn't take "Pb.struct" as a
string/filename but as a variable.

This is the correct approach (BTW: why do you have "Pb.struct" above,
and "Pb2.struct" here?).

To me, this doesn't seem like a problem in the struct file (yet).
Rather, it's a problem in the octave code (the function strcmp is not
found).
What version of octave do you have (if not a recent one, please update;
Google suggests that there have been some problems with and changes to
the strcmp function over time)?
What does `help strcmp` give when run from within octave?
