Yes sure. When I blew on the dust, I had my eyes full.
But it is for a 15 year old machine with an old AMD Turion processor. It take hours (many hours) to build lang/rust + www/firefox. Unfortunately, one of both is often broken when I try to do (e.g. http://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=54904)

When I look at the repositories, it seems like recent releases of Opera are only available for linux, mac and win. I think you could remove the conditional part of the Makefile depending on ${EMUL_OPSYS} == "freebsd". Now, I will have to test the linux binary compatibility on FreeBSD :)

Thanks for your contrib!
