No. It is only 9.0-RELEASE-p3 that I tried building under.
I do NOT have the FreeBSD 8.x box, so it is impossible for me
to test under 8.x-RELEASE.

Hmm..., yes, they are not addressed in the patch I submitted
on Aug 06 2012.
The version of flex that GRUB2 requires is 2.5.35 or later,
which is available via the ports "textproc/flex"; however,
I have no idea about how to write it in the ports skeleton.
The build w/ gcc on the base system (/usr/bin/gcc) can be
finished by the following modification.
1. DELETE the '-Wempty-body' option from the gcc options
- You should delete '-Wempty-body' from
grub-2.00/configure (line 20053) (WARN_FLAGS)
2. Add the '--disable-werror' option to the configure script
