Xiao, the port is a some kind of a program plug into a FreeBSD system
- for a program to work on a FreeBSD it must have its own Port, also
any change in the program code may be done only within its Port - what
you get from a binary is a result of Port build. No direct download,
compilation and installation is advised as it can compromise system
integrity. The latest port for OpenOCD in the FreeBSD system is 0.2.0.
The new port will be 0.4.0 ans its on its way :-)

If you want to test the latest 0.4.0-rc2 source code, please download
this unapproved port package and uncompress it into /usr/ports/devel:
http://files.tomek.cedro.info/stuff/openocd-040-rc2.tar.gz

If you want to get the sources from a GIT repository, please try the
standard git scenario. I am in doubt if openocd-devel port should
allow building the source code from git, or building the RC versions
from a package (just as above 0.4.0-RC2 and in this case the ports is
already prepared) - I have to consult the system developers...

Best regards,
