Matlab 7.0.1 is an old version, released around end 2004. It was
quickly superseeded with version 7.0.4 to fix some serious bugs. I
reccommend people in general to work with the latest matlab versionm,
which now is 7.4.

You can fix your problem by changing the "matlabversion" function
which is included as subfunction inside the eeglab2fieldtrip
function. Go to line 250 and replace the code there with the snippet
below. I will make the same change in the release version.

function [v] = matlabversion;
s = ver('matlab');
v = s.Version;
if ischar(v)
   % try converting to a number
   n = str2num(v);
   if isempty(n)
     switch v
     case '6.5.1'
       n = 6.5; % this is accurate enough
     case '7.0.1'
       n = 7.0; % this is accurate enough
     case '7.0.4'
       n = 7.0; % this is accurate enough
     otherwise
       warning('cannot convert matlab version into a number');
       v = v;
     end
   end
   v = n;
end
