Is installed on my (5.1 through 5.2-CURRENT) system, in:
/usr/games/fortune - ELF binary
/usr/share/games/fortune/ - directory for furtune data files

Is /usr/games in your PATH?  (Unsure if this is the normal location for 
it or not under FreeBSD, although IMHO it still belongs in a bin 
directory...)
