Maybe you should give the CVS version a try. I am also running FreeBSD 5
-CURRENT and it works beautifully for me. Actually, I have just
installed Windows XP inside QEMU on FreeBSD. However, you will probably
need to apply the patch I posted to the list earlier today in order to
make the CVS version compile on FreeBSD.

I don't believe QEMU can be compiled with GCC 2.x at all. That line of 
GCC is just too broken. However, on FreeBSD 4.x you can still use the 
lang/gcc32, lang/gcc33, or lang/gcc34 port if you want to try compiling 
QEMU with GCC 3.x. Though, frankly, I don't see much point in wasting 
time on that. FreeBSD 5.x is the future ;).
