octave failed

[Ryan Schmidt]

See this bug:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13686

See also this uncommitted update to 2.9.17:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13332

Actually, Octave 3.0 has been released in the mean time so maybe  
someone could try updating the port to 3.0 to see if it works, and if  
so, attach a patch to the 2.9.17 ticket.
