Hi Hazen:

I am glad to hear that the java installed examples test and my second try at
the 2^n fix both work for you.  You should be able to get the java examples
to work by hand by following what is done in plplot-test.sh and
test_java.sh.

That leaves the Tcl/Tk issue. Koen, will you comment on Tcl/Tk under our
ABS and CBS please?

It also leaves the Octave issue for which I have one important question below.

What happens if you use the fink version of octave from
http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/octave ?
