I've had blender 3 days. It core dumps reliably with a segmentation fault
on my 2.2.5 system. I have not yet had time to pursue it further. I hate
to report it without trying out a few things but there is a bug report for
what it's worth.

I am very excited about this package and appreciate the effort it has
taken to bring it to FreeBSD.

Best regards,
