Hi Bernhard,
thanks for the patch. I modified it a bit and applied it now. It
should be soon available in the public repository.
And thanks a lot for this really nice present! :D
Regards,
Alexander Eichner

procfs on FreeBSD is considered a security risk and is therefor not
mounted per default and users are encouraged not to mount it unless
it is
absolutely neccessary. There are a few possible alternatives to get
the
same information (path of the running binary, command line
arguments, ...)
namely sysctl(3) and kvm(3).
Baptiste Daroussin has created patches to get rid of the procfs
requirement on FreeBSD and I've modified and fixed them where
necessary to
get them into proper shape. The patches use sysctl(3) and should
work on
at least FreeBSD 6.2 and newer (did not have an older box to test it).
