I didn't try http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/ yet but as far as I read 
in the wiki page
        http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/wiki/Installing
this port is for *TeXLive 2008* only. TeXLive 2008 has binaries files for 
FreeBSD (so I can install TeXLive from the live CD without the need of the 
port). But TeXLive 2009 has binaries only for NetBSD. I don't know if we can 
use NetBSD files for FreeBSD?
