Actually it says it isn't _supported_ not it doesn't work :)

The KLD consists of two parts - one is binary only, and the other has
source so you can recompile it under different releases and have it
work.

Given that the version Matthew Dodd hacked together that used the
_linux_ version of this worked in both -current and -stable I would
suggest it's probably likely that it will work :)
