No, I had a problem compiling Lazarus because of an incorrect library
call in FPC. FPC installed/compiled correctly from the freepascal
_sources_ (Not available via ports). What's called sources in ports is
nothing more than a collection of pre-built binaries and libs.

To compile Lazarus, you need FPC-2.0.2 source tree,

Whether or not the pre-built ports FPC has the proper libs compiled in
or not is meaningless, since I need a good source tree. The only way to
get one of those on freebsd is to manually patch the freepascal sources.

Do you know of a freebsd-patched FPC-2.0.2 source?

I will submit a port if I can get Lazarus to compile. What's needed to
compile Lazarus is a proper 2.0.2 source tree (binaries won't do), and a
Lazarus source tree which properly calls for available/proper freebsd
libs. Neither of which exist AFAIK.
