Hmmm, 

this sounds like you are selling a product based on FreeBSD,
which is fine and fair. However, since now you are relying on
a feature which suffers from neglect, and you have already
thought about contributing yourself, have you thought about
offering some financial support to anyone who may be willing
to support it?

PHK's project appears to be a success, so maybe you could
motivate someone with some financial contribution to 
freshen up the code and at least put it in a port-maintainable
state? Just a suggestion.

Best regards,
 Daniel
