I've trimmed Rik's email. Please see the link below for what was included in

I'm wondering if a mac binary could be constructed by using "otool -L" to trace 
the dependent dynamically linked libs, and then populate an Octave-x.y.z.app 
with the required libs Octave depends upon.

Could this be accomplished using Fink and/or Macports to satisfy the 
dependencies ?
