You're missing the /etc/login.conf file; you can get it from:

   ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/etc/login.conf

Note that 2.2.5 is now released, you may wish to upgrade.

FreeBSD still uses a.out as the default object format; it will run
ELF binaries, although I don't know offhand how to generate them.

For the most part, you don't need to worry about ELF on FreeBSD for now.
