Is it a bug in the OS, or a bug with a certain version of PHP?  I  
believe freebsd doesn't ship packages, but has a ports repo instead  
right?

Horde_Pack should NEVER fail, at least as used in Horde_Session.  The  
fallback driver, if all other pack drivers are not available, is to  
use the PHP serialize function.  This method is always available.  The  
only way it wouldn't is if the Horde_Pack main object can't find the  
driver file - which would be a PEAR (or some other) installation  
issue.  Or if the file permissions weren't correct on the driver files.
