I've got a couple of suggestions:

1) Try "fink install octave361" again, and when it asks you about
ghostscript, select "ghostscript-nox".  That's the only connection that
I've found between octave and freeglut.

2)  It seems that freeglut is no longer compatible with the stock X11
from 10.5 (assuming that's what you have installed).  You might install
Xquartz-2.6.3 from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X112.6.3.
