Not true. Upstart has been ported to kfreebsd, and has successfully booted
to a getty.

There seem to be some kinks to work out before it's entirely stable, and
probably a fair amount of integration work before it's usable for booting to
multiuser, but upstart does run on kfreebsd now.
This has even been mentioned on this bug:

While I realize there are a lot of threads to keep up with in this
discussion, it would help everyone with the task of keeping up to not have
outdated information repeated unnecessarily ;)
