Hi,

Sorry it took me long to respond but it's been a while since I 
last built the 3.6 version and it took me a few attempts to get 
it to work.

Here's my configure options:

./configure                                                \
    CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc-mp-4.7                           \
    CFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -m64"                                \
    CPPFLAGS="-D_THREAD_SAFE -I/opt/local/include"         \
    LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib -m64 /opt/local/lib/libsuitesparseconfig.a" \
    CXX=/opt/local/bin/g++-mp-4.7                          \
    CXXFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -m64"                              \
    F77=/opt/local/bin/gfortran-mp-4.7                     \
    FFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -m64"                                \
    LLVM_CONFIG=/opt/local/bin/llvm-config-mp-3.1          \
    --prefix=/opt/octave/3.6                               \
    --without-framework-carbon                             \
    --with-arpack                                          \
    --with-lapack="/opt/local/lib/liblapack.a /opt/local/lib/libatlas.a 
-lgfortran" \
    --with-blas="/opt/local/lib/libcblas.a /opt/local/lib/libf77blas.a 
/opt/local/lib/libatlas.a -lgfortran"   

Notice in particular I had to change blas/lapack as configure seemed to have 
problems detecting atlas
and that I had to add "libsuitesparseconfig.a" explicitely.

Finally I had to disable framework Carbon to avoid use of deprecated function 
CGDisplayBitsPerPixel.

All my  dependencies are installed via MacPorts.

With these options I get:

I attach parcellfun_example.m jus to make sure we are using the same example.
