I'm on a dialup connection until Thursday and thus downloading lots of 4MB files is really slow. I can continue working on testing the Makefile conversion when I get back to campus on Thursday. If there is any major source patching required to make this port build with FreeBSD then this port will be above my current abilities. At the moment I'm not stuck, but I also don't have a majority of the festival package downloaded.
