1.0.5 is the development version, the next release will be called 1.0.6. This release will only contain fixes and no new features. So no thread support.
Thread support is planned for 1.2, but still needs some decisions how we are going to implement and distribute it.

A snapshot for 1.0.5 is downloadable from the FTP site. Contrary to the other platforms, for FreeBSD it is advised to use the snapshot over the release version.
The pthread unit from the contributed webpage was never tested with FreeBSD, but when you do it, don't forget to install the LinuxThreads port, since pthreads probably interfaces to THAT package, not to FreeBSD kernel based threading.
Moreover I ported the Linux emulator code of the Linux CLONE function to FPC, and it is supplied as linux.clone (unit linux, function clone). This because the FCL threading is based on it.
This however hasn't been tested well.

And don't forget to make the rtl smart-linkable (as in 1.0.2, but not in 1.0.4)! ;-)
