I'm in the process of porting an alpa/axp performance monitoring
utility call iprobe to FreeBSD/alpha from Linux/alpha. It depends on
libbfd & libiberty, but unlike things like gdb it does not come
bundled with them.

What's the proper FreeBSD way to handle something like this?
Do I just download a binutils distribution & build it from within the
port?  

Given that binutils is already in the source tree, it seems a little
odd that the bfd libraries & headers are never installed.. 

Thanks,

Drew
