Actually, to me it is the other way around. :) If we have good portable source code, there would not have to be many changes to the actual code base to support BSD. The only changes that would be required would be allowing the build system to build on BSD. Thus I'm expecting the majority of the changes to be build related. Then again, maybe some of these changes are due to lack of generalization in the build system, but from the cursory glance I've given the PR so far, it does not look like it.
