I see this problem too.

available_graphics_toolkits 
ans = 
{
  [1,1] = fltk
  [1,2] = gnuplot
}
graphics_toolkit fltk
error: feval: function `__init_fltk__' not found
error: called from:
error:   /opt/local/share/octave/3.6.3/m/plot/graphics_toolkit.m at line 59, 
column 5

I'm certain this worked in the past.   However, I've been using my own portfile 
to build Octave.  I suggest a bug be filed with macports.

        https://trac.macports.org/auth/login/?next=/newticket

If you don't have time to file one, I may have time later today.
