Do you mean it is empty by default, or empty after set (gca, "xticklabel", xt) ?

The default behavior is for gnuplot to automatically produce the ticklabels ... which I don't think Octave has access to. Thus, when in automatic mode they show up empty. However, in manual mode they should be available. For the moment, this behavior is different than Matlab's. I suspect that once the new graphics back end is complete these issues will change.
