Boolean simplify fails for a simple expression

1 view (last 30 days)
Fails:
>> syms x y z
>> simplify(x & xor(y, z))
Error using mupadengine/feval (line 163)
The first argument must be a condition.
Error in sym/simplify (line 58)
rSym = feval(symengine, 'simplify', s,...
However, when xor is in root:
>> simplify(xor(x & y, z))
ans =
x & y xor z

R2015a. Suppose I should update MATLAB or implement xor with "and", "or" and "not". I was hoping for something with lesser impact on the workflow, like patching the toolbox script, but thanks anyway!

Unfortunately there does not appear to be any simple patch in that release.
