I've never tried on a BSD machine, but this does not means it
may not work. MIDAS is based in POSIX standards and BSD may well
fulfill this requirement. Just give it a try. You only need the 
MIDAS sources package and the installation instructions.
I would try first with the GNU C-compiler and the F77 fortran-to-C
converter as Fortran compiler.

Good luck,
and let me know.
