Comment:

 It looks like octave is finding and using fltk, though the author of the
 octave port did not intend for that to happen. Try deactivating the fltk
 port, then cleaning and installing octave, then reactivating fltk. This
 will ensure that octave will not try to use fltk.

 {{{
 sudo port -f deactivate fltk
 sudo port clean octave
 sudo port install octave
 sudo port activate fltk
 }}}
