Compilation Error on FreeBSD

Hello, when i'm compiling the master branch on Free BSD 12 i get the following error

$ make

Any chance this has something to do with the OS ?

Pistache currently only supports Linux (due to some of the syscalls we use).
I don't know if we will change this at some point, but there hasn't been any active effort to do so yet.

Would be nice to consider it for MacOSX Darwin too. Had the same issue .

As mentioned we were aware of the issue, and I'm sure we will consider possible ways to resolve this.
At the moment we're still pushing towards an 0.1 release so once we're there I'm sure we'll review cross-platform support.

[williamkibira]

Awesome :D , i'm guessing since this will work inside something like a docker container , its no biggie . let me take that route instead and Dev on `Linux` are you accepting any volunteers on the project ?

Anyone is allowed to contribute a PR. If you add actual support for FreeBSD, please create the appropriate abstractions to hide the OS-level differences first. IDK if travis-ci supports FreeBSD build hosts, but if t does, please add any relevant FreeBSD test environments to our travis-ci config.
