The sysvsem support has a very small footprint, so I wouldn't
worry about it unless you have good reason to.

Technically, you don't need any compatability libraries to run a
statically-linked Linux binary.  The core of the Linux
compatability support is a small kernel interface that turns Linux
system calls into FreeBSD system calls.  But most applications are
dynamically linked against glibc or some other god-aweful thing, so
you would need the libraries even in Linux.
