A kernel patch for SCSI emulation can be found here:
http://www.cuivre.fr.eu.org/~thomas/atapicam/
If you have kernel source installed, apply the patch from /usr/src
(eg. cd /usr/src && patch < PATCHNAME.diff) and then rebuild your
kernel. You may have to uncomment an option in your kernel after you
apply the patch, I don't remember. But anyway, instructions for
building a FreeBSD kernel can be found in the handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
Once you have SCSI emulation you can use cdrdao and friends.
FWIW, the patch does work, I burned a DAO audio disc last night.
Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions about the above.
