Among packages devoted to solution of  PDEs in general, I'd like to  
mention, in addition to the ones above,
the octave-forge package BIM

[3] BIM: http://octave.sourceforge.net/bim

but, to my knowledge, none of the above can deal out of the box with  
the kind of non-linear integro-differential problem mentioned by th OP
