	Do you also have those (from a working i386 system):

	# Linux support
	options		COMPAT_LINUX		# Enable Linux ABI emulation
	options		LINPROCFS		# Enable the linux-like proc filesystemsupport (requires COMPAT_LINUX and PSEUDOFS)
	options		LINSYSFS		# Enable the linux-like sys filesystem support (requires COMPAT_LINUX and PSEUDOFS)
	device		lindev
	options		COMPAT_AOUT		# Enable i386 a.out binary support

	(note PSEUDOFS is also needed)

No, I haven't added those.
Are these necessary to have
the linux binary compatibility?
The handbook only mentions COMPAT_LINUX.

Thanks

Anton
