No, this is where you are wrong:
"two different save functions that have different syntaxes and thus lead 
to 2 different saved data, as expected from what is written in the help 
page."
savematfile/loadmatfile are here for compatibiltily with matlab and use 
matlab file format.
save/load are using the new native scilab file format (based on open 
spec hdf5).

If you want to use save with a varying number of variables, you can do 
something like this:
//assuming that var2save is a 1d vector of names of the variables to save:
execstr('save(pwd()+''\saveInSodFormat.sod'','+strcat(var2save+',')+')')

Cheers,

Antoine
