There was no setproctitle in 6.5.* either.

I'm guessing that the argv[0] = "the string you want" method no longer
works in FreeBSD 4.0??? In any case, as per previous discussion, I did
write up a more portable and robust setproctitle-like implementation for
our use (which actually uses setproctitle if available), so if this is the
problem it's at least being worked on.
