I've got a variety of freely available SQL databases listed at
<http://www.conline.com/~cbbrowne/rdbms.html>.

The list is relatively oriented towards Linux, but should still be
relevant for FreeBSD as:
a) A number of the freely available RDBMSes also run on FreeBSD, and
b) Isn't there a fairly good Linux "emulator" for FreeBSD allowing the
running of many Linux binaries?

If you want me to do an official "package selection" search, I'll be
happy to charge my "reasonable" hourly billing rate to produce a nice
report...
