You don't say what target architecture you are cross-compiling for, and if
your host OS was FreeBSD or something else like Linux or NetBSD.

I've been cross-compiling NetBSD 5.1_STABLE, 6.0 prerelease and HEAD for
i386 and amd64 from FreeBSD 9.0_STABLE with varied results, but in my
experience NetBSD is less stable and less up-to-date than FreeBSD.
