A slight change in approach.  I've added a "Testing" section the the wiki page 
and linked to my dropbox.

        
http://www.octave.org/wiki/index.php?title=Create_a_MacOS_X_App_Bundle_Using_MacPorts#Testing

I'll be updating the link there.  This will allow those who are interested in 
testing to check the current name and date before going thru a long download 
process.
