Re: OpenPegasus On Free-BSD platform

We have already forced gmake on other platforms 
(ex. windows) and messing with the make system is 
one of the things that could really make a mess.

Therefore, unless there were totally compelling 
reasons we will always make gmake our standard for build.

Thus, for example we have not provided a clean 
way to integrate this with visual studio for 
windows (despite a lot of requests).  While we 
may consider alternatives in some cases in the 
future if there is sufficient request, the core 
capability is just to get OpenPegasus built so gmake is our standard.
