port upgrade octave fails

[j. van den hoff]

I just did a `port selfupdate; port upgrade outdated' run under macos  
10.10.3 on a mac pro. `octave' fails like this during the configure phase  
(final section of main.log):

it seems the fortran compiler is not found or cannot be used, no? does  
this require a bug report or am I overlooking something obvious?

thx/joerg

ps: the same selfupdate/upgrade does _not_ choke on `octave' on a macbook  
pro also running 10.10.3...
