4.0 won't be out for a year or so, I expect SYSV semaphores will
still be supported at that time :)

You need to build a new kernel with SYSV semaphore and probably
messages and shared memory enabled.

add

options         SYSVSHM
options         SYSVSEM
options         SYSVMSG

to your kernel config file and rebuild it.
