This error occurs because that method looks up Mat5Reader in the wrong namespace.

This patch fixes it:

As a workaround in the meantime, one can use NMatrix::IO::Matlab.load_mat instead.

Even though I have a fix, I'm submitting this as an issue instead of a PR because as far as I can see there's currently no infrastructure to test Matlab files, and I don't have the time to set one up for this trivial fix, so I can't provide a spec.
