Sorry for catching up on this so late, I caught a glimpse of it via gmane.org.

Here is the current status on FreeBSD: After a bit of work, kaffe from CVS now
seems to build fine on 5.3 according to the tinderbox at
http://tinderbox.anholt.net/tinderbox3/showbuilds.pl?tree=kaffe and all the
regression tests pass. According to Eric Anholt, there is one remaining failing
regression test for the recent x86_64-freebsd port.

Other than ix86 and x86_64, I don't think kaffe has been ported to other freebsd
architectures (I don't see them in the CVS tree, if you have ported it, please
send in your patches). It shouldn't be too hard, though, Eric had the x86_64
port running during a few hours of IRC [1] conversation. ;)

cheers,
