I have successfully recompiled and installed the following Forge
packages against octave 3.8.0-2 with no failures (possibly some test
suite runtime errors but no crashes or fatal failures):

  octave-audio
  octave-benchmark
  octave-bim
  octave-communications
  octave-control
  octave-data-smoothing
  octave-econometrics
  octave-epstk
  octave-fpl
  octave-ga
  octave-general
  octave-geometry
  octave-gsl
  octave-image
  octave-linear-algebra
  octave-mapping
  octave-miscellaneous
  octave-missing-functions
  octave-mpi
  octave-msh
  octave-nan
  octave-nnet
  octave-nurbs
  octave-ocs
  octave-octcdf
  octave-octgpr
  octave-odepkg
  octave-optim
  octave-optiminterp
  octave-plot
  octave-quaternion
  octave-secs1d
  octave-secs2d
  octave-signal
  octave-sockets
  octave-specfun
  octave-splines
  octave-strings
  octave-struct
  octave-symbolic
  octave-tsa
  octave-zenity

Note: not built in a clean chroot since some of these depend on others
and I don't have an experimental chroot with a local apt repository
configured at the moment.

The following Forge packages depend on octave-io, which needs to be
updated to 2.0.0 or later to work with 3.8.0, not yet looked at:

  octave-financial
  octave-io
  octave-statistics

The following Forge packages FTBFS for me with octave 3.8.0-2:

  octave-dataframe (error in call to horzcat function?)
  octave-vrml (error parsing DESCRIPTION, upstream bug #41087)

No testing of functionality beyond the tests that are run at build time.

How about that wiki page to track the transition? Is there a template we
can reuse to start something?
