FWIW, you should probably start with "netbsd" rather than "freebsd"
because the FreeBSD code might be rather surprised at finding itself
running on a PPC.  (But then again, the *bsd codes are mostly the same
anyway.)

Oh man, they didn't take that old NeXTstep C preprocessor for MacOS X?  ;-)

The MacOS X dynloader seems to be somewhat different than FreeBSD's.  Try
NetBSD's, or if all fails you can copy over the QNX dynloader files.
That platform doesn't support dynamic loading at all (actually, I think it
does now, but we haven't gotten around to supporting it) so the stub files
should get you to compile at least.
