Forgot to draw attention to this part:

Best I can tell, libpq for FreeBSD has a dependency diamond for GSS
symbols: libpq links against MIT krb5, libcurl links against Heimdal,
libpq links against libcurl. Link order becomes critical to avoid
nasty segfaults, but I have not dug deeply into the root cause.
