Since FreeBSD 9.0 sem_open() works even without loading sem.ko. Anything below 9.3 is no longer supported by vendor while 9.x branch goes EOL in 2016-12-31.

Why _linux.h doesn't define _PR_HAVE_POSIX_SEMAPHORES ? Is NSPR is so bitrotten no one wants to touch _<platform>.h lest end up using unmaintained code ?
Comment on attachment 8817219 [details] [diff] [review]
conservative fix
Here are dragons:
$ ./pr/tests/runtests.sh
[...]
sema FAILED
semaerr FAILED
semaerr: Opening nonexistent semaphore /tmp/nosuchsem.sem without the PR_SEM_CREATE flag should fail but succeeded
semaping FAILED
sem_open() tests in Apache Portable Runtime and Python's multiprocessing work fine.
