Binary install on FreeBSD

I am attempting to use the binary distribution for Unix which I have extracted
from the tar archives in /home/byrnejb/Projects/aubit4gl.  I have some
questions before I go further and given this operating environment:

FreeBSD-12.1p12 Unix OS
PostgreSQL 11.9


On FreeBSD the libiodbc and ncurses library packages are installed into
/usr/local/lib.  They both have configuration manager scripts installed in
/usr/local/bin: /usr/local/bin/iodbc-config, /usr/local/bin/ncurses6-config,
and /usr/local/bin/ncursesw6-config.

FreeBSD uses CLang instead of gcc and has its binary in /usr/bin.  The -O
option equates to -O2 for clang.

Do I set the following in .a4glrc?

# Aubit 4gl **compiler** configuration file
#

#where Aubit 4gl is installed: here you can override aubitenv if you need
AUBITDIR=/home/byrnejb_hll/Projects/aubit4gl

#location of ODBC libraries (iODBC manager or other)
ODBC_LIB_DIR=/usr/local/lib

#optionally you can specify separate location for NCURSES
NCURSES_LIB_DIR=/usr/local/lib

#defines command executed as C compiler for your system
GCC="cc -O"

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$AUBITDIR/lib

PATH=$PATH:$AUBITDIR/bin

iodbc-config provides this information:

iodbc-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include/libiodbc

iodbc-config --libs
-L/usr/local/lib  -liodbc -liodbcinst

ncurses6-config provides this information:

ncurses6-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include/ncurses/ncurses

ncurses6-config --libs
-fstack-protector-strong -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -lncurses -ltinfo


There is a second ncurses configurator, which handles multibyte characters
(UTF8?), that is named ncursesw6-config and which produces this:

ncursesw6-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include/ncurses/ncursesw -I/usr/local/include/ncurses

ncursesw6-config --libs
-fstack-protector-strong -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -lncursesw -ltinfow


Which leads to etc/aubitrc


more etc/aubitrc.binary.default

#AUBITETC=/etc/opt/aubit4gl
#WARNING - do not hard-code - use /home/aubit4gl/.aubit4gl instead!!

I habe no idea on how to set these:

LIBPQ_FE_H_IFLAGS="-I/usr/local/pgsql/include/"
IFX_LIBS='-lifsql -lifasf -lifgen -lifos -lifgls -lc -ldl -lcrypt
/home/informix/lib/esql/checkapi.o -lifglx'
IFMX_ESQLC='/home/informix/bin/esql'
PG_COPTS="-DUSING_PG_COPTS=1 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H"

Or these:

## You may want to edit these
#
A4GL_CINT="no"
A4GL_SQLTYPE=esql
A4GL_LEXTYPE=C
A4GL_PDFTYPE=PDF
A4GL_RPCTYPE=XDR
A4GL_UI=TUI
A4GL_FORMTYPE=GENERIC
A4GL_MSGTYPE=NATIVE
EXDTYPE=mpz
EXDTYPE_DETECTED=" mpz"
A4GL_PACKER=PACKED
A4GL_RESERVEWORDS=NO
A4GL_SQLCONVERT=YES
A4GL_AUTONULL=Y
A4GL_ANSI_WARN=Yes
A4GL_NO_ALT_SCR=Y
A4GL_SAPDB_ESQLC="no"
MSYS_ROOTDIR=
MINGW_ROOTDIR=

Help with this and an explanation of what each setting is for would be greatly
appreciated.  I have visited and read much of:

http://aubit4gl.sourceforge.net/aubit4gldoc/manual/

But there does not appear to be a search function and I have not found the
place where these are discussed.
