There is a port of LinuxThreads to FreeBSD in the FreeBSD ports.  I
had also ported most of the drawterm threads to using FreeBSD rfork(2)
at one point.  The only minor difficulty there in 3.2 was that the man
page for rfork incorrectly claimed that the stack was split given the
appropriate flags.  I haven't any idea if the man page reflects
reality now.
