It's a lot more than changing the printf here.

Thank you for reply. After loading efirt.ko `efivar -l` succesfully
lists UEFI environment variables.

Hi,
This should be an easy fix. :-) EFI Runtime Services on FreeBSD
("EFIRT") wasn't necessarily globally stable until right around 12.0.
For 11.x, you'll need to `kldload efirt` or add `options EFIRT` to
your kernel config before efivar/efibootmgr become usable.
Thanks,
Kyle Evans
