The Free Pascal *BSD port.
Comments, mistakes and suggestions to Marco@freepascal.org
Since the last update to this document, I added the Net and OpenBSD ports,
so now it is a *BSD port. I don't own BSDi or a Mac OS X, or even accounts
on an intel system so that'll have to wait. (the Mac OS X/Darwin port
will definitely take off if the PPC codegenerator is fully working)
In 1.1.x branch, the tree RTLs will be merged into one, for easier
maintaining, this will hopefully increase the Open and NetBSD ports
somewhat.
I'm actively searching for test accounts on Open and NetBSD/i386 (and
in the future also for other processors).
Requirements: minimal: some MBs account, permanent connection, 100 MHz+
(speed not that important)
cool : 100 MB + 100MB tempspace, low latency connection
fast machine that allows swift cycling.
In 1.1.x/1.9.x/2.0.x branch, the BSD RTLs are merged into one, for easier
maintaining, NetBSD and OpenBSD are dropped due to lack of feedback and
interest, Darwin has been added.
1 *BSD status and notes. (kept on CVS because I work on several places)

4.x : Used to develop and maintain port. Should work, all
6.x : roughly same as 4.x
5.x : Used to develop and maintain port. Should work, all
versions. Best *BSD platform.
4.x : Should work mostly. Maybe some updates to prt0.as/cprt0.as
needed.
3.x : _not_ supported, (3.2, 3.4, 3.6 would probably work
with some very minor changes to the signalhandling. The
syscall numbers changed)
(all these are deprecated in 1.0.x
(NON-ELF) 2.x : _not_ supported, but it might be doable. (the
OpenBSD port works on a.out)

but that one doesn't want to make shared files.

The IDE also is starting to work quite nicely on FreeBSD, so it is included
in the releases since 1.0.6. I didn't check the fixes for *BSD on the other
two OSes yet.
