Yes, I did create symlinks via the CLI O & L options:

<L> create symlinks in standard directories:  [X]
            binaries to: /usr/local/bin
            manpages to: /usr/local/man
                info to: /usr/local/info

Yes it is a symlink to bin/i386-freebsd/tlmgr which in turn is an other
symlink pointing tö: 
tlmgr -> ../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl

Yes it is.
