Felix, hello.

It's true that OS X can't mount the freebsd filesystem (slightly disappointingly), but recall that the configuration in question[1] is on the DOS partition of the image, which is automounted when the card becomes visible, as /Volumes/BOOT.

Caveats: ...at least in my experience on OS X 10.8.5, and if we're talking about the same thing.

Best wishes,

Norman
