I've never gotten XSP to work on FreeBSD.  Your best bet is running XSP
with a combination of FreeBSD-current and Mono 1.1.x.  I've been trying
to get time to install FreeBSD-current to see how XSP fairs with the
latest threading changes that have been made.  There are a large number
of threading fixes that will hopefully be MFCed for 5.4.

By the way, if you're interested in Mono on FreeBSD see the link in my
sig.  (For better or worse since I've just started learning C# :) I
maintain most of the C# ports and I keep after Mono for the maintainer.
I also have some ports not in the FreeBSD ports tree, including XSP.
