sysv semaphores are different from POSIX semaphores, so loading
sysvsem.ko won't help you here.  It looks like the "sem" module is
missing from /usr/src/sys/modules/Makefile, which explains why you
don't have it :)  You can build it manually though:

 cd /usr/src/sys/modules/sem 
 make obj && make depend && make && make install
 kldload sem
