Hello,
Not that this is an actual fix to the problem, but:
The COMPAT_LINUX kernel option isn't needed any more, per Marcel. (At
least, when I wrote an article on this, it wasn't.) You can probably
remove COMPAT_LINUX entirely.
(If only the rest of the problems were this easy. :)

Yes, you can. You will need a copy of the Solaris shared libraries,
which are not freely available.
Poke around Sun's site for their $10 personal edition of Solaris X86.
This will give you the libraries.
Then search the freebsd-emulation archives for details on how to make
this work.

Sorry for the last try, not enough caffiene yet...
Anyway, I had this problem as well. The problem was that /boot/loader
wasn't working properly. Without it, the system runs, but you can't
