There isn't an equivalent in FreeBSD. gettid(2) is Linux-specific.
From the man page, if the thread is not part of a thread group created
by passing the flag CLONE_THREAD to clone(2) [yet another Linux-specific
system call] gettid(2) is equivalent to getpid(2).

However, if the application being ported uses clone(2), you'll first
want to decide for a threading library available on FreeBSD.
