I got a bit further by installing the port for getline
(/usr/ports/devel/libgetline), and changed the code slightly to provide
a single parameter. (Look at man getline)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <getline.h>

int main() {
        char line[10]="test";

        getline(line);
        printf("%s", line);

        return 0;
}

chaucer 29 ~/c $ cc -o getline -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib
getline.c -lgetline
chaucer 30 ~/c $ getline
testnow
testchaucer 31 ~/c $
