There are enough other changes in Gentoo/FreeBSD that would stop from being
able to use binaries built on Gentoo/FreeBSD on "vanilla" FreeBSD, more or
less like building on Debian stops you from using (most) binaries on SuSE.
But as long as they don't set ./configure --host parameter explicitly, it
should be all fine, beside the soname of the NEEDED entries, which is
actually, in my opinion, a good thing.
But please also note that this is _not_ a GNU/FreeBSD project :)
