Well, I just posted a few messages on this last week... If you dig
around, you should find explicit instructions.

My instructions for building Postgres95-1.01 have been incorporated
into the "Installation Hints" section of the Postgres95 WWW site:

	http://s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU:8000/postgres95/

On that page, follow this link:

	o Installation hints, troubleshooting, bug list and patches 

There, you'll find this:

	o Compilation instructions for FreeBSD 2.1R
