Comment (by michaelld@…):

 ok; so arpack is good now. The issue with octave is the same as before,
 something to do with the way .texi files are being handled:
 {{{
 [snip]
 :info:build octave.texi:132: warning: @end should only appear at a line
 beginning
 :info:build ./strings.texi:1139: @itemx must follow @item
 [snip]
 :info:build make[3]: *** [octave.info] Error 1
 :info:build make[3]: Leaving directory
 `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_math_octave/octave/work/octave-3.6.4/doc/interpreter'
 }}}

 Building octave works on my 10.8 setup; I'll try it on my 10.9 boot
 hopefully later today. You're running on 10.9, so I'm guessing it's
 specific to that OSX version.

 A key difference in the log file between mine and yours is that yours is
 trying to rebuild the .texi documentation, while mine is not. I have the
 latest MacPorts installed and updated, so, again probably a difference in
 the OSX version.

 If you don't think you need documentation, you can always do:
 {{{
 sudo port clean octave
 sudo port install octave -docs +atlas +gcc48
 }}}
 and maybe that will succeed.
