  Here is a workaround:

- extract 'org/netbeans/modules/vcs/profiles/cvsprofiles/config/cvs.xml'
from 'netbeans/modules/cvs-profile.jar'

- edit cvs.xml, changing this (it's at the start of the file):
    <compatible>"Unix", "Windows"</compatible>
to this:
    <compatible>"FreeBSD", "Unix", "Windows"</compatible>

- copy the resulting cvs.xml to
'~/.netbeans/3.6/system/vcs/config/cvs.xml' or (system wide)
'netbeans/system/vcs/config/cvs.xml' (maybe you'll have to create the
directories).

- (re)start Netbeans

  Then you'll have a CVS profile to chose when mounting a VCS filesystem.

  Dunno how the OS identification is done, but (obviously?) FreeBSD is
not identified as "Unix".
