Alright more reading, looks like I don't have to worry about this.
However, I want to say that the Execution Monitor is not that portable
across FreeBSD platforms and needs a lot of ifdef'ing to get it to go.

I also ran across the Config library failing with a test with

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib32/libc.so.6: unsupported file layout

Does anyone know why this is?
