Namely bug #518852:

If someone run a buildslave on a reliable FreeBSD machine then we can
set up the buildbot to automatically ensure that we haven't committed
any patch which breaks Tahoe-LAFS on FreeBSD and that the dependencies
such as PyCrypto work on FreeBSD. This requires a volunteer to operate
the buildslave and occasionally help us debug FreeBSD-specific issues.
Here's how to get started:
