Really?  I managed to do this with an earlier (BSD/OS 1.x?) machine
and it worked great - everything from FreeBSD emacs to fvwm binaries
ran under BSD/OS with the FreeBSD ld.so and shared libs copied into
the appropriate places.  My copy of BSD/OS 2.1, however, simply
refuses to execute the FreeBSD executable at all, shared or static.
The image activator spits up on it, claiming it's of an invalid
binary format.  How did you manage to get it to work, that's what
I want to know. ;)
