What does 'readelf -a out/bios.bin.elf' tell you, for each build where
you either override, or aren't overriding, CC with coreboot's
i386-elf-gcc or pkg's gcc48 and/or LD from FreeBSD's base or pkg?

payloads/external/SeaBIOS/seabios $ gmake CC=gcc48
LD=/usr/local/bin/ld &>/dev/null ; readelf -h out/bios.bin.elf | egrep
'OS/ABI'
  OS/ABI:                            UNIX - FreeBSD

payloads/external/SeaBIOS/seabios $
PATH=/home/idwer/coreboot/git/coreboot/util/crossgcc/xgcc/bin:$PATH
gmake CROSS_PREFIX=i386-elf- &>/dev/null ; readelf -h out/bios.bin.elf
| egrep 'OS/ABI'
  OS/ABI:                            UNIX - System V
