I think in GCC 4.3 is where you get ARMv7 architecture support, (see 
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/changes.html), which is EABI and at GCC 4.4
you have "EABI-compatible profiling interface for EABI targets." (again see
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/changes.html).

So I've chosen to work on 4.4 just to be sure, and it also supports Cortex-A9, as 
well as VFPv3 (yeah!).

If you meant whether "arm-unknown-freebsd" implies "arm-unknown-freebsd-eabi"
(and I've been mumbling about sth else :o) ) that answer I think is "yes".  Of course, 
if I'm mistaken please someone correct me!

Kind regards,
Vassilis L.
