You'll get better response if you send each question as a seperate email,
with an appropriate subject line for each one.  May sound silly, but a
lot of people will delete messages with subjects like "Misc Questions"
without even reading them.

I don't know the answer to this one, check the source.

The handbook is a good place to start:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/linuxemu.html

> What does this emulation consist on? Can I run linux and svr4 binaries?.

It's not really emulation.  In the case of Linux, it actually installs a
RedHat kernel and uses it when the system calls differ from the native
FreeBSD system calls.
You should be able to run most Linux and srv4 binaries.  In my experience,
I've only ever come across 1 Linux binary that wouldn't run (Pervasive
database server).  I can't vouch for the srv4 compatibility, as I've never
used it.
