The port build of win4bsd will not build on 7.2 because you have first 
to rebuild the freebsd kernel with option SCHED_4BSD. win4bsd-1.1_3 
requires the traditional 4bsd scheduler. Good possibility this is also 
true for 7.0, 7.1 and 8.0

Gave up on testing win4bsd because of performance impact on server from 
using traditional 4bsd scheduler. OMHO this port needs to be updated to 
function using the new scheduler.
