  What steps are needed to make a nim compiler for the FreeBSD arm (raspberry pi)

  If you are able to compile c/c++ code on your Raspberry then just cloning the nim repo on the Pi and following the build steps should be enough.

  You can also cross compile the code. I do this for my beaglebone (arm) library here: http://forum.nim-lang.org/t/1318#8315

  This is easy for the BeagleBone as this board uses the default kernel. As far as I know the PI community change the kernel so I don't know how easy will be to cross compile.

  It doesn't seem like c_sources for FreeBSD/arm is available. In the build.sh the FreeBSD -> arm section is missing.

  You might be hitting this issue (Closed): https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/1934

  Maybe this will help:

  Araq: "So use cc=clang in the nim config file?"
