The packages are available on FreeBSD.cdrom.com in the packages directory. For folks who are running X on low memory machines, I HIGHLY recommend getting these two packages, as they perform very well and use very little memory compared to their counter parts. Thanks go to Rob Nation and Geoff Rehmet. Rob for writing them, and Geoff for porting rxvt to FreeBSD.
