This isn't actually a problem. It is just a warning that can (in this case) be ignored. This happens because MATLAB 7.1 is warning that the old *.dll files are not used if there are *.mexw32 files that encode the same functions. If you move all the *.dll files to a directory where MATLAB can't see them, then the warnings should stop.
