I did essentially the same steps, including doing a cvs download of the FreeClx dev tree.
My compile of FreeClx had problems, which I fix, but I could never get the package compiler to compile the Zeos files.
I notice that he really didn't get Zeos to work because the TDBNavigator freezes his IDE.
He should run strace and pass the output into a text file, then retry his drag&drop of the TDBNavigator componant and/or running of his app. The trace log will tell him what happened.
