Requesting new variant for octave and arpack

[Christopher Jones]

Hi,

For feature requests please either file a feature request in MacPorts Trac, or even better implement the change yourself and submit a Pull Request to GiHub with the changes. mails to this list are far from guaranteed to have any impact in these cases.
