Rivet can be built under FreeBSD without any special tweaks.

Rivet is a port in the FreeBSD ports tree.  To build the latest one
supported there, cd to /usr/ports/www/mod_rivet and do a make install
or equivalent.

To build from source, first you need to build and install Tcl and Apache...

    cd /usr/ports/lang/tcl85
    make
    make install

    cd /usr/ports/www/apache22
    make
    make install

Since the maintainer of the Tcl stuff in the FreeBSD ports tree has
chosen to have Tcl build in such a way that there can be multiple different
versions on a system at the same time, stuff isn't quite in the expected
place.

Run configure in this directory with the following parameters:

./configure  --with-tcl=/usr/local/lib/tcl8.5

If you want to build with debugging symbols enabled for debugging Apache
and mod_rivet with gdb or whatever, add "--enable-symbols" to the above.

Your mileage may vary.
