Our current template/freebsd has:

CFLAGS='-pipe'

case $host_cpu in
alpha*) CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -O" ;;
esac

SUPPORTS_THREADS=yes
case $host_os in
freebsd2*|freebsd3*|freebsd4*)
THREAD_CFLAGS="-pthread"
NEED_REENTRANT_FUNC_NAMES=yes
;;
*)
THREAD_LIBS="-lc_r"
NEED_REENTRANT_FUNC_NAMES=yes
;;
esac

Now, this says FreeBSD needs reentrant named functions for all versions.

However, our main server (4.8-STABLE FreeBSD) doesn't have any mention
of getpwuid_r(). Would some FreeBSD folks test the
--enable-thread-safey and let us know how things work?
