  • Add FreeBSD detection and conditional compilation in Makefile
  • Make GameSWF library changes conditional for FreeBSD compatibility
  • Use portable shebang in changelog script
  • All changes are conditional - no impact on Linux/macOS builds (I hope)

Thanks!

Thank you for excellent software :-) I wanted to run MAME on my FreeBSD machine and couldn't find a good frontend that worked. Attract-mode was the one I liked the best, luckily the structure made it reasonably easy to "port" :-)
Now I can maybe get it into the package and ports system for FreeBSD. I have never tried that before but I will give it a shot :-)
