No, the tests in the "parallel group" can be run in parallel, but on
FreeBSD you cannot run them *in parallel* - that doesn't mean you don't
have to run them :) Just ensure that the thread pool size is set to 1 on
FreeBSD.

Also, regarding this - i think what i suggested earlier is slightly
incorrect. A better fix would be to simply return cmdline without
modifications on FreeBSD. Just because we don't modify cmdline now
doesn't mean we wouldn't be doing so in the future, so not calling
__get_cmdline is not the best solution.
