Comment(by michaelld@…):

 Ah; so what you're saying is that the octave-* ports, or at least most of
 them, are designed to work with Octave 3.2 and may or not work with Octave
 3.4 or 3.6?  That would make some sense, and I think that's a reason why
 we've kept Octave at 3.2 -- for compatibility with the octave-* ports. I
 didn't realize that the octave portgroup already was designed to work with
 both octave and octave-devel. In that light, assuming I'm understanding it
 correctly, then I think it would make sense to bump octave-devel to this
 Portfile just to get folks using it & leave the octave portfile alone just
 right now. Then once another maintainer (or, you) can be found s/he can
 deal with bumping the octave port and fixing the octave-* ports to work
 with the update. How does this grab you?
