All of these are available on FreeBSD too (except Mercury Mailserver,
which is just another Win32 MTA that I don't know about but somehow feel
reluctant to trust more than my Sendmail or Postfix installations).

Why isn't it easy for you to install all these things on FreeBSD?

Which part of the installation troubles you?  A recent addition to the
Handbook was a section on Apache.  Perhaps, by letting us know what
gives you trouble we can improve the documentation to help you and
anyone else that tries to install an Apache web server from now on.
