Unfortunately not. FreeBSD account, which we use for testing, has badly 
compiled C libraries, and doesn't allow to link C++ libraries to C programs.

Perl extension itself compiles fine, but running tests results with some 
unresolved externals.

Any help with tests on this field are *very* welcome.
(few hints: compiling perl extension reports one warning, which doesn't 
matter and will be solved in next release. If you install sablotron in 
some non-system locations (using ./configure --prefix='blahblah'), you 
need run 'perl Makefile.PL' with -d switch, which allows to specify the 
sablotron directory (perl Makefile.PL -d 'blahblah' in our case), maybe 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH tweaking is needed).

Yes. I remember your mails very well, they served as very good starting 
point. Sablotron now compiles on free bsd cleanly, sample data are 
correctly processed.

I don't know... freebsd support was pure before 0.43.
