It was not clear to me if there was some provision for cross compiling the FreeBSD 'world' using a Linux machine as a host. I know that NetBSD makes everything using a very vanilla Makefile at the start to then compile the NetBSD version of make, and then subsequently builds everything, compiler, standard unix tool set, and kernel. However, I didn't see that sort of setup in the FreeBSD environment. Is it a simple matter of invoking or getting a 'bsd' style make program built first. Or is there more to it than that. Thanks, John Clark.
