Errr, except that there exists the concept of reexportation. If Octave 
is deemed as a projet to reside in the US (and I'd say that it does), 
reexportation in contravention of the export controls of the original 
country (For example US -> Portugal -> Cuba) is also illegal by 
international treaty... So no dice there either
