I installed teTex sometime last fall.  The following worked for me:

cd /usr/local/src
gunzip < /tmp/teTex-src-0.4pl2.tar.gz | tar xpvf -
cd /usr/local
gunzip < /tmp/teTex-lib-0.4pl2.tar.gz | tar xpvf -
cd /usr/local/src/teTex-src-0.4
vi Makefile  (uncomment the CFLAGS line below "for BSD4.4 system...")
make config
make clean texhash all
make install ini

oh yeah, I was root for all of this.

Hope this helps.

Don't remember where I downloaded it from.
