Brandon;
I think you are as stuck as I am. Back when I got my first FreeBSD
release (2.0R) I tried and failed to get 2.45 to compile. At that time
the problem was that the structures in the kernel and core file weren't
the same as NetBsd(?). I tried for a month of so to get someone who was
familiar with the internals to take a look at it without a single response.
I also had patches to UPS that did C++ and we had used it for 2 years
on a commercial project because it was so much better than ObjectCenter
at the time. I have new patches to the 3.14 version for C++, but use them
only on our Solaris machines. I haven't tried UPS 3.14 on FBSD since I
expected just the problem you are having.
Sorry....
