What exact version of FreeBSD are you running?

Are you running the latest commits for the 2.0 compatability from -current?

If you aren't, the problem is most likely that the environment is being
referenced in the exec for duplication of the envirnment of the exec
caller for the replacement process.

The recent patches address the issue of the BSDI 2.x environment relocation
changes that make BSDI 1.x and 2.x incompatible.
