You can't use these libraries direct with FreeBSD executables.

You should compile a Linux executable and run this executable in
Linux compat mode.

// What problems might I expect from using these libraries?

If compiled with the right tool, none.

I'm using them, right now, inside the SybPerl package.

BTW: The "right tool" I used to compile is a Linux 1.2.13 a.out system.
