This is (in my mind at least) a fairly serious problem that needs addressing. Quite often, it doesn't happen simply because of limited resources, but we should all try harder to get FreeBSD recognized as a first-class player in other projects. Also, I believe this is even more true for things imported into /usr/src ... To be fair, a few committers *are* going the extra mile for these efforts (David Obrien probably deserves special recognition here).
