I'm a maintainer of Intel Fortran Compiler, recently a person in Japan manage to make FreeBSD's native binary, wonderful!! However,we employed some cheats for it and it seems to be insufficient. Some binaries only make coredumps. In Fortran's case it is very difficult to make a native binary since we should remake all the libraries(there's no headers or something like for C/C++ case). To do this we have to analyze hard-coded library calls. There's no F90/F950 compiler for FreeBSD, so it is very nice for us to release such a great compiler to FreeBSD. Please consider to release Intel Fortran compilers for FreeBSD. I'm interested in also MKL.
