Renato Botelho <garga@freebsd.org> is the maintainer of the devel/git
port/package on FreeBSD and has now also joined this list and offered
to help triage and address issues.

After some further investigation I believe these tests are technically
invalid but work with glibc because of its looser requirements. I've
sent a patch (t4210: skip i18n tests that don't work on FreeBSD) to
address the failures.
