GNU Pascal not ported?

There used to be a port of gpc, but as you can see in the latest cvs log
message the port has been removed since it was broken:

See here, for example:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/lang/gpc/Attic/Makefile

If you would like to use gpc, you could use those file as a start and
try to fix it, such that the port can be rebuild.

If you are interested in that, then you even could become the maintainer
of that port and appear as one of the "additional contributors" to the
FreeBSD project in the handbook. Doesn't that sound great? The
freebsd-ports at freebsd.org mailing list will assist you fixing that port.

Regards,
 Simon
