## Return the Hankel matrix constructed given the first column @var{c}, and
## (optionally) the last row @var{r}.  If the last element of @var{c} is
## not the same as the first element of @var{r}, the last element of
## @var{c} is used.  If the second argument is omitted, it is assumed to
## be a vector of zeros with the same size as @var{c}.
