Is there a boot manager that can handle this?

What you posted below seems like grub 1 syntax. The latest Ubuntu comes 
with grub 2. Here is what I have in /etc/grub.d/40_custom (after the 
required bits):
menuentry "FreeBSD 9-Current amd64" {
set root=(hd0,3)
chainloader +1
}
menuentry "FreeBSD 7-Stable i386" {
set root=(hd0,3)
chainloader +1
}
