He did an excellent job on the port to BSD, and we only had to make a few
changes for FreeBSD.  I suspect that the original code would be closer to what
Net/Open BSD needs than the FreeBSD version, however, you might want to
look at the FreeBSD version for reference.

We still have two significant bugs that I know of in our port.  One is that
we dont sync EXT2FS properly on shutdown, and additionally there is a problem
under loading.  I will probably get time to fix it VERY SOON, if you start
working on it soon (to lend a hand, and to get the FreeBSD version fixed.)

If you want, just let me know...
