All the 3.0-RELEASE's I've ever installed have been ELF binaries with an
a.out kernel by default.

Of course, if you are unsure, the `file' command comes in pretty helpful :-)

> uname -a
FreeBSD november.jaded.net 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Thu Oct 15 04
> file /bin/ls
/bin/ls: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable
