See http://www.corel.com/news/1998/october/linux.htm for the press release. I suggest it would be a good thing for everyone who would be interested in seeing this work under FreeBSD to go to https://livewire.corel.com/cfscripts/Feedback_forms/feedback.htm and submit feedback politely asking them to consider a FreeBSD native port, or to endeavour that the Linux version is runnable under emulation.
