If you have a problem with this, there is a package for the most recent FPC version here:

ftp://freepascal.stack.nl/pub/fpc/beta/freebsd-1.9.2-ports/

(the .tgz, version 1.9.2)

It makes no sense why fpc depends on firebird btw.

The fpc ports have tons of headers for C libraries on board, but adding all those packages
as dependancy is insane. It seems firebird got singled out for some reason.

(on the db front alone this is bdb, oracle, postgres, two mysql versions, interbase)
