While XEmacs 19.11 is considerably easier to compile for FreeBSD
(1.1.5.1R in this case), there are still a few problems:

1) Add the following at the end of s/freebsd.h:

#define GETPGRP_NO_ARG
#define TAB3 OXTABS

2) As in lemacs-19.10, the file unexfreebsd.c is missing - I used 
   unexfreebsd.c from the FSF emacs distribution (last revision note in
   the header is: Tweaked 26-Feb-1994) which worked perfectly. 

Configure options were --with-gcc --dynamic --with-xpm
