Apologies for failing.

 I ... know that :) It doesn't exist in the FreeBSD/ppc kernel.

 No. The Linux emu code isn't there, and the ppc-specific
layer that converts FreeBSD<->Linux syscalls/signal etc hasn't
been written.
 
 NB, for anyone interested in looking at that, there is an
excellent series of articles by Emmanuel Dreyfus on the
NetBSD/ppc Linux emu implementation that pretty much describes
the work needed, sans NetBSD/FreeBSD differences:
