He means run 'make perl' in the extension directory, rather than make
It builds a new perl statically linked with the extension.
(Well, at least the XS code will be statically linked. It may take more effort
to find a libaspell.a rather than a libaspell.so, but getting that statically
linked too may help)
'make test_static' will test the new perl binary that this builds for you.
Also, if it works on Linux, taking the Linux binary and running it on FreeBSD
under the Linux emulation might prove "interesting", particularly if a
static build on FreeBSD still doesn't work.
