The last FreeBSD 3.x release was 3.5.1 in July 2000.  3.x support has
long since ceased and it is no longer possible to correct security
holes in the compat3x port.  Since a variety of security holes are
known to exist, the port has been FORBIDDEN.

Your options appear to be:
1) Contact mbrola at tcts.fpms.ac.be and get them to update the FreeBSD
   binaries to support 6.x
2) Override the 'FORBIDDEN' tag and install compat3x anyway.
3) Run the Linux version.
