Fink's build process for the general package is pretty much identical to 
just installing it manually, and it appears to produce the same failure. :-(

My assumption is that some of the options that I'm using to build Octave 
aren't the best.  Here's what Fink uses (at least for the variant that 
uses untuned LAPACK):

octave:2> octave_config_info.config_opts
ans = '--prefix=/sw' '--with-lapack=-L/sw/lib/lapack/3.4.2 -lreflapack' 
'--with-blas=-L/sw/lib/lapack/3.4.2 -lrefblas' '--with-framework-carbon' 
'--with-x' '--x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib' '--x-includes=/usr/X11/include' 
'--with-magick=GraphicsMagick' 
'--with-qhull-includedir=/sw/include/libqhull' 
'--host=x86_64-apple-darwin' '--build=x86_64-apple-darwin' 
'--infodir=/sw/share/info' '--mandir=/sw/share/man' 
'--libexecdir=/sw/lib' '--enable-shared' '--enable-dl' 
'--disable-static' '--disable-docs' '--enable-dependency-tracking' 
'build_alias=x86_64-apple-darwin' 'host_alias=x86_64-apple-darwin' 
'CC=flag-sort -r gcc' 'CFLAGS=-O3 -MD' 'LDFLAGS=-Wl,-dead_strip_dylibs 
-L/sw/lib' 'CPPFLAGS=-I/sw/include' 'CXX=flag-sort -r g++' 'CXXFLAGS=-O3 
-MD -I/usr/X11/include' 'F77=/sw/bin/gfortran-fsf-4.8' 'FFLAGS=-O3'
