If you think my scripts are the correct approach, then go ahead and commit them. However, maybe before committing my scripts to your repo, maybe its a good idea to first determine the reason my scripts aren't working for you with the MXE approach?  

The good thing about mxe-octave is that it has grown very diverse and capable of doing many things. I am not familiar with m-scripting so I will have trouble debugging your scripts. But maybe someone else can reuse your scripts to make them work with MXE. I have come up with a temporary solution in Python and I have been able to produce a working application bundle of Octave for Mac OS X. I have committed all the scripts to my repo since it will be handy to have them all at one place.

I'll pulled a copy of you repo.  I haven't used mxe before.  What commands are needed to produce a MacOSX app?
