Well, all together now: "I didn't change anything."  That is, I have not
modified my LC_ALL setting:

$ /usr/bin/env | grep LC
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
$ /compat/linux/usr/bin/env  | grep LC
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

2139 is my uid, and both linux and native FreeBSD seem to agree:

$ /usr/bin/id
uid=2139(faber) gid=134(div7)
groups=134(div7),0(wheel),5(operator),80(www),169(dartgrp),259(sys413),335(cs555fac),356(arpisi),387(crisis),402(ilense),546(xcp),584(webdiv7),605(rfcdev),7001(abac)
$ /compat/linux/usr/bin/id
uid=2139 gid=134(div7) 
groups=0(wheel),5(operator),80(www),169,259,335,356,387,402,546,584,605,7001(abac)

2139 is my id: the id of the user running firefox (and presumably the
plugin).
