 Every BSD has a libc, the problem is in the implementation, I'm not
familiar with the
inner works of synapse, but at least synaser assumes glibc and the linux na=
ming
convention for the /dev files (serial/parallel port).
 But FPC runs on *bsd and OS X so you have at least a compiler that's
known to work
with synapse and try to port it to the BSD platform.
