Matlab/Simulink: linmod fails for subsystem

Given a simple Simulink model Model with a single input, a single output and a transfer function in between, I can use linmod('Model') to get the linear state space model. However, when I put the same model into a subsystem called Subsystem under Model and I issue linmod('Model/Subsystem') I get the following error:

Error using dlinmod (line 147)
Subsystem block does not have a parameter named 'SimulationStatus'
Error in linmod (line 59)
[varargout{1:max(1,nargout)}] = dlinmod(model, Ts, varargin{:}, Args);

I am using Matlab/Simulink R2014a. How can this be fixed?

linmod only works for Simulink models, not subsystems. The input and output points for the linearization are those corresponding to Inports and Outports blocks at the top-level of the model.

If you have Simulink Control Design, you should use linearize, which is much more flexible and powerful (or the equivalent linear analysis tool).
