I just built your code on my FreeBSD 8 box and it compiles and loads fine. How are you compiling your code? I used this makefile http://pastebin.com/f3ab71917 and all I typed was this: make sudo make install sudo make load and I get the "hello, fail" message, and then I typed sudo make unload and I got the "unload fail" message.
