Thanks for your updated log. In order to fix the issue, I wanted to setup a
virtual armv7/FreeBSD system to have faster turnarounds.

I tried https://wiki.freebsd.org/QemuRecipes (i.e. using qemu and an FreeBSD 13
installer image), I can see the loader, but no kernel output (I put
console=comsonsole in /boot/loader.conf and -Dh in /boot.config) -- instead
qemu uses 100% CPU and I see a single "|" (maybe the spinner from the kernel?).

Do you have any experience / guidance on how to setup an emulated armv7 system
on a FreeBSD/13.0/amd64 host?

Of course what you could try on your system is to remove the `model=armv7` from
the patch attached in this PR (or set `model=armv6` -- it looks like OCaml on
FreeBSD/arm is only support with the armv6), but I'm not sure that'll lead to a
working package.
