AFAIK, the source code is not 64-bit clean, so no native version exists.

The FreeBSD/i386 binaries do not run under emulation.

The only way to get it working is to use the Linux/i386 version.

The first time it is run, it will hang for a few minutes. Java must be
disabled by unchecking a box somewhere in Tools/Options or you will get
the same behaviour every time.
