Thanks for the update.  I have been working on a port for pypy.  The code is 
at github.com/DragonSA/pypy.  It may be able to help you compile pypy under 
FreeBSD.  There is a branch called 1.6 that is compatible with trunk.  To 
compile from 1.6 set WRKSRC to point to a fresh checkout of pypy:

# make install WRKSRC=/path/to/hg/checkout/of/pypy

The master branch uses the 1.5 sources.
