You could build it from the sources, but since it appears to require some patching for FreeBSD it may be easier to install it from the ports/packages collection. Exactly where it is in the ports collection depends on what release of FreeBSD you have installed, and it might be worthwhile to install the appropriate upgrade package from http://www.freebsd.org/ports/, download the latest version of the portball and build and install from that. Amaya itself needs a couple of small tweaks to build in FreeBSD. I've made a port for it, but it hasn't been committed yet. You can get it from: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=9210 -- I've always wanted to be a dilettante, but I've never quite been ready to make the commitment.
