Thanks.  I think I'm missing something fundamental about how to use these two 
files.

I tried following http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories, 
but that seems designed for people starting from scratch.  Based on your note, 
I can definitely put the octave-3.7.7+.tar.gz file in the /tmp folder, but 
deciphering what to do with the octave-local-3.7.7+.tar.gz has so far eluded me.

I'm currently occupying myself by making sure I have all the dependencies 
listed in the math/octave-local/Portfile.
