I get this error when I run: `qrfact(rand(50,10), pivot=Val{true})`. The docs and help say that I can do that, so what is wrong here?

This works: `qrfact(rand(50,10), Val{true})`. Seems like the docs are a bit out of date.

Please open an issue about this if the docs are still erroneous on the master branch.
