In principle, @option{--enable-threads} is now compatible with
@option{--enable-libgcj} on FreeBSD@. However, it has only been built

The static
library may be incorrectly built (symbols are missing at link time).
There is a rare timing-based startup hang (probably involves an
assumption about the thread library). Multi-threaded boehm-gc (required for
libjava) exposes severe threaded signal-handling bugs on FreeBSD before
4.5-RELEASE. The alpha port may not fully bootstrap without some manual
intervention: @command{gcjh} will crash with a floating-point exception while
generating @file{java/lang/Double.h} (just copy the version built on
@samp{i386-*-freebsd*} and rerun the top-level @command{gmake} with no
arguments and it
should properly complete the bootstrap). Other CPU architectures
4.5-RELEASE@. Other CPU architectures
supported by FreeBSD will require additional configuration tuning in, at
the very least, both boehm-gc and libffi.
