Without touching OpenGL directly by hand, SDLs own graphics stuff is more or less a case of here be a bitmap, blit bitmap on screen here. For OpenGL and tessellation, I would say check
here. OpenGL is several layers "Higher" then what I personally expected, but still refuses to hold your hand.
Qt also provides an
OpenGL module, although I've never used it.

OS X and FreeBSD have very many differences, one most notably being, that average OS X users are not likely to know what X11R7 refers to, nor actually care. How it would effect something like the C4 engine, is purely dependent upon the engines code base: they don't seem to provide enough documentation for one to judge that easily. Looking at the website, unless the author has quiet a bit of
NIH syndrome, coupled with being as anally portable as ISO C*, C4 is not likely to be useful on FreeBSD without abuse to make it work, or conservative use of it's features to minimise portability pain.
It should however, be well worth the licensing cost to outfit a team of coders at a start up.
* The ISO C standard (and afaik C++'s as well), is so darn portable, it would be fair to say that it doesn't even assume the operating system supports directories!
