Problems with Matlab Compiler

I have two problems with the compiler: (1) whenever I compile a m-file using the mcc command I get a warning: "Function display has the same name as a MATLAB bultin. We suggest you rename the function to avoid a potential name conflict". However, changing the name of the file and the function it contains does not make the warning disappear. What is the problem?
(2) I have a file that uses the command database from the database toolbox. Compiling the file is possible, but when I want to execute the standalone application, an error message occurs: "Undefined function 'database' for input arguments of type 'char'.". The database toolbox is on the search path and according to the Matlab documentation the database command should not cause any trouble when using the compiler. When I run the m-file in Matlab no problem occurs. Again: what is the problem?

(1) Does the same thing happen when you use deploytool? (Why are you using mcc anyway?)
(2) The MATLAB installation where you use the database toolbox and the MATLAB installation where you do your compiling are definitely the same?

(1) No, the problem does not occur when using deploytool.
(2) Yes, the MATLAB installations are definitely the same!

I ran into this same thing yesterday and tech support says it's a known bug. You need to replace a certain file. See bug report http://www.mathworks.com/support/bugreports/search_results?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search_executed=1&keyword=1059029&release_filter=Exists+in&release=240&selected_products=&commit=Search

If the problem doesn't occur with deploytool, I guess another solution is just to use that!
