I have for quite a while wanted a mapserver entry in the FreeBSD ports
collection (http://www.freebsd.org/ports) so that I could install
Mapserver really easily on my FreeBSD boxes. Well, since
procrastination didn't seem to be doing the trick, I decided to see if
doing actual work would help.  I'm sorry to report that it seems to
have helped. :)

I have a specific question about the configuration of mapserver and
GD. Assuming that GD was correctly built and that the GD build
includes JPEG, PNG, and FreeType (all of which are true if you build
GD via the FreeBSD port) is it safe to leave off the --with-jpeg,
--with-png, and --with-freetype options to mapserver's configure
script? I have done so, and it seems to be working. The issue is that
by having the Mapserver port depend on the GD port, GD gets built just
fine and includes JPEG, PNG, and FreeType, and I don't want to
duplicate those paths in the Mapserver port.

Here, for your review and comments, is a FreeBSD port for Mapserver. 
The knobs for TIFF, MING, PDF, WMS, GDAL, POSTGRESQL, and PHP are
largely untested, they are my attempt to make the port complete. We
don't use those features of Mapserver.

Any and all comments are welcome.  I'm heading over to the bike shed
now.
