Excellent.  Then you're probably talented enough to create a port for 
it yourself.   Check out:
http://www.freebsd.org/porters-handbook/
That should give you enough to create a port/package
A good place to go with questions after reading that is the ports 
mailing list.  See
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-MAIL
for how to subscribe and such.
