How to deal with a port that uses /proc in FreeBSD 6.0?

Anyone have any idea on this?  Basically writing a port that uses /proc (since all the dev work is done in Linux) but doesn't debug properly since there is no /proc in FreeBDS 6.x+

Is there a way to use sysctl in place of it?  If so, how can you 'symlink' an app to use it instead of /proc?

Thanks
