I've been working with Jeremy White over at CodeWeavers, and he has now 
gone ahead and created an unsupported build of CrossOver Games for PC / 
FreeBSD.

Jeremy has also issued a challenge to the FreeBSD / PC-BSD communities, 
to show their support for these releases, in order for them to 'move up 
the ladder' in terms of priority.

If you can, please help us out in showing support for these releases. 
I'm hearing that we should see an unsupported build of CrossOver Office 
as well in the near future.

Also, before anybody asks, yes you can run the 
install-crossover-pcbsdgames*.sh installer on vanilla FreeBSD. Since 
PC-BSD isn't a fork, the only thing you need to ensure, is that if you 
are on FreeBSD 6.3, you must apply the Wine patch at 
http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine. Users on FreeBSD 7.0 or higher do not need 
this patch applied.
