There was a GSoC 2015 from Colin Lord to bring to the base system a recent
version of Ficl. pfg@ found many bugs in ficl4.
Among them:
- Fix ficlInstructionPick bug. Pick instructions from 0, not 1.

- Fix some math bugs.

- Fix bug in Ficl stack preventing the stack from growing.

- Change rand and srand calls to random and srandom
Fix those in the port. While here, unset MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE as the port builds

Regrettably, I have no free time for the foreseeable future which
I can commit directly to these aspects of FreeBSD work, due to
a demanding new role elsewhere.

directly involved in day-to-day effort.
Thank you for your understanding.

FreeBSD uses ficl in its loader. So far we haven't done much more in
this area, perhaps importing a port will encourage further fruitful
exploitation of this valuable tool.
