you don't have a new binary

freebsd is (currently) too tricky for the build farm (in general bsd 
comes with os version specific compatibility issues and getting the 
build client up and running on a vm is also a bit tricky) .. you can 
compile the binaries yourselve as the sources are included and then move 
them to the right spot

(Damien does that so maybe he can help you)

Here’s an explanation:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Manual_Compilation

… but it should be easier than that, you already have the distribution:

cd <whatever>/tex/texmf-context/source/luametatex
. ./build.sh
cp build/native/luametatex <whatever>/texmf-freebsd-amd64/bin/

Check if the paths match your installation!
