X support does work, and very well on FreeBSD
I've gotten gtk-sharp and qt-sharp to work with pnet on freebsd

qtsharp (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=64686) and   
Mahjongg (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=64687)
from pnet work with out doing `ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1  
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1.0`

it is things like dotgnu-nim that I can't get to run with out
doing `ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1  
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1.0`

when I don't do  `ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1  
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXcursor.so.1.0`
I get the following error.

ahze:/usr/local/bin root$ ilrun nim.exe

FreeBSD ignores minor version and pnet calls for the minor version so  
it will not run, please see
