apparently the patches are to Makefile system, to comply with various
requirements of the FreeBSD ports (e.g., skipping some gcc compile
flags). Therefore I assume there is no issue on the C code for compiling
on BSD.
Anyhow, it would be good to get anything that is commonly useful in
Makefiles and eventually make the rest configurable via command line
parameter/environment variables based on detection of bsd. Or add kind
of profile switch to turn on the option required for building the port
(e.g.,: make BUILDPROFILE=FREEBSD ...).
Cheers,
Daniel
