I've compared the versions of pom(6) on FreeBSD and NetBSD (which is also the one installed on Debian GNU/Linux), and the NetBSD one accepts a date argument. Why hasn't this version been imported into FreeBSD? I can see nothing in terms of licensing (or anything else for that matter, including a mailing list archive search for relevant issues) which would prevent it from being directly imported, without any changes to anything else in the build system. I've used it as a drop-in replacement on my system without difficulty. I've also thought of making a separate port of it, but it'd be much easier to just have it as part of the base system (no, it's not installed by the freebsd-games port). For those who are curious, the NetBSD version may be obtained at ftp://{MIRROR_SITE_URL}/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/src/games/pom/pom.c .
