Comment (by andy@…):

 Here is what happens when I try that:

 $ sudo port -v install atlas +gcc48
 Error: Requested variants "+gcc48" do not match original selection
 "+mpclang33".
 Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean atlas' or specify
 the force option (-f).
 To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
     http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
 Error: Processing of port atlas failed

 So I did "sudo port clean atlas" and then tried "sudo port -v install
 atlas +gcc48" again. After a seemingly interminable period of time, it
 completed successfully. I then continued with the octave install. I was
 convinced that it was hung for quite some time, but it eventually
 finished, and seems to be working. Thanks for the help. Do you know what
 was wrong?

 And why is it that the install/build takes so agonizingly long? It feels
 like 1980 all over again. Is it waiting on network access? That would make
 sense, since much of the time the terminal process seems to consume only
 1.5% of CPU.
