symantic differences but not a lot in terms of performance.  Because the
systems are close enough its mapping stuff more than creating a virtual
machine.

the "mapping stuff" doesnt always work the way you think it does. while most linux binaries seem ok when run under linux emulation on freebsd, some of them do crash for weird reasons. the linux flash plugins usually crash mozilla quite regularly on my notebook, for instance.

so it should be fairly trivial to do.  Its more a matter of recompiling,
and there are a lot of groups/individuals that dont like to do that for
every BSD variant...  If all you have is the linux binary you may want

the three major bsd variants, netbsd, openbsd and freebsd, share enough similarities that porting such things is only needed once. porting between the three *BSD variants for userland applications is usually trivial.
