If you search the mailing lists, you will find emails from several people

I did, and none of the suggestions get past the teTX-latex2e/teTeX-texmf
problem of producing postscript/pdf output. They allow 2.2.2 to build
on FreeBSD >5, but don't get past the above problem.
Then the good news is that in version 2.6 you don't have these dependencies
to teTeX anymore (unless you want to use lilypond-book).
Also, lilypond 2.6.x won't build on FreeBSD because the latest port of
texinfo [4.8] only includes makeinfo 4.6, and lilypond won't get past
that [it wants makeinfo > 4.7].
That's only needed to process the documentation. You can safely change
the line in configure.in that says
STEPMAKE_PROGS(MAKEINFO, makeinfo, REQUIRED, 4.7)
to read 4.6 instead and then run
./autogen
to generate and run a new configure that accepts makeinfo 4.6.
It may happen that when you run 'make' it will break at the end
complaining about errors, but those will only affect the documentation
and 'make install' should install everything else correctly so you can use
the program.
