Thanks Dmitry, for the patched port skeleton, all the compilation issued are 
resolved with, but ipmi-sensors and ipmi-sel still have sdr cache bugs on 
FreeBSD.

I am trying on IBM machine   eserver xSeries 346 -[884011U] and the machine 
has KCS as Interface type. 

address@hidden /home/vcr]# ipmi-sensors
ipmi-sensors: sdr cache directory setup failed
address@hidden /home/vcr]# ipmi-sel
ipmi-sel: sdr cache initialization failed
Do we need to initialize or setup sensor data records(sdr) before using 
ipmi-snsors by some method..?

Thanks
