PrimeGrid BOINC on FreeBSD

I have installed BOINC via the port on FreeBSD, does anyone know if it's possible to get PrimeGrid running on FreeBSD?

AFAIK, BOINC Sieving is based on sr2sieve, which is AFAIK not available for FreeBSE. There is a FreeLSD client for LLR; but in this case you don't absolutely need BOINC, unless you are keen on BOINC-credit.

I think I'll stick with manual SOB sieving using WINE and the windows version of sr2sieve :)

Have you tried compiling sr2sieve on FreeBSD? From what I've heard, it should compile pretty easily.
