Have you tried using his toolbox directly? The install methods include just cloning the github project and adding it to Matlab's path, I suspect that would work for Octave as well. (see addpath). Then the question is how much of it is compatible. According to the FAQ:
"
Will the toolboxes work with Octave?
A subset of the RTB will work with Octave, specifically those functions that deal with arm-type robots. To enable this functionality go into the folder rvctools/Octave and follow the instructions in the README.txt file.
There are a lot of minor differences between MATLAB and Octave, though less than there used to be. The big stumbling block right now is that Octave handles classes in a very different way (actually the way that MATLAB used to). The Octave folk are working on adding MATLAB-style classes but it's not there yet. Once that happens I suspect a broader port of RTB and MVTB will be possible.
So I'd recommend giving it a try.
