This patch adds freebsd 6 support on 32-bit i386.

Grab the freebsd 6 32-bit p4api from perforce (I used 2006.2) and place into third-party/p4api/freebsd60x86/. I believe the location is:

http://filehost.perforce.com/perforce/r06.2/bin.freebsd60x86/p4api.tar

Thanks for the patch.

I'm not sure that the change to api.cpp for const_char workaround is required though, as it only affects versions of P4API prior to 2006.1 (where const_char use was removed from P4API) and FreeBSD 6.0 support was only added in 2006.2.

I'll apply the setup.py patch to both 0.4-stable and trunk.

You're right about the const_char thing, I had originally made these changes against an older version of the API long ago. Thanks!
