It shows up almost immediately if I load octave-forge-signal.

portmaster math/octave
portmaster math/octave-forge-signal

My .octaverc file contains

pkg load netcdf
pkg load signal

loading signal also loads octave-forge-control.  At csh prompt

% octave --gui &

within a few minutes of the GUI opening either
try resizing the window or a pane in the window
or dragging the window.  Watch octave drop core.
