The small commit that Karol originally suggested was just pushed to ompi-trunk. This just simply adds the appropriate header files for FreeBSD (6.2, 6.3 and 7) to be able to compile.
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/changeset/18366 This didn't fix the hanging on the kevent call mentioned in this thread, however, setting the environment variable EVENT_NOKQUEUE did find a work-around. I'm not sure if that is the solution we want for all FreeBSD platforms in the long term (requiring the user to set particular environment variables for particular platforms), but for now at least I can run the MTT tests that I need to (once it gets in a nightly build). Feel free to contact me if you would care to work together on another solution. Or is it as simple as returning NULL from kq_init if EVENT_NOKQUEUE is set or #if defined(__FreeBSD__) like the minor patch below?
