Warning singular matrix.

I am using \ to solve a system of linear equations. I get a warning telling me the matrix is singular or ill conditioned. This only happens sometimes as my program is recursive. In the event that this happens, there is a 'fall back value I would like to assign as the solution. How could I implement something like an if statement like:
if(warning) x=this instead end
I was reading about dbstop, but that doesn't seem to do what I want.
Thanks,
Chris

There is the try() command, as part of the try-catch structure, but I think that only works for error-trapping, not warning-trapping. That would be a nice feature.
You should be able to use the lastwarn() command to create something like the same thing. Specifically, I am thinking you could execute the lastwarn() command just after your code, and use the output to determine whether to assign your "fall back" value.

You could check if any of the result isinf
if any(isinf(result(:))) %is it singular?
x = this_instead; %yeah, doh!
end
