Per Kevin's advice I have contacted freebsd-python@ and wai= t to hear what they say about this. I am not above getting the PyPy devs on this if necessary. I find it hard t= o believe that an implementation they say will be around hard-depends on an= implementation that will not. The port itself could be another story. PyPy implements Python 2, so they s= hould be able at this point to use PyPy to build PyPy if they don't already= . If I could run the ELF version on FreeBSD I'd take that over nothing, but I= 've meant to try FreeBSD again for years (possibly migrating to it) and I'v= e only read the FAQ and part of the handbook so far. Still learning.
