Yes it does (or rather, it did before the endian.h issue creeped up).
In my experience, it runs better than the 1.0.x.  I had some problems
with running agi scripts in 1.0.3 (calls were hung up seemingly for no
reason), upgraded to 1.0.5, still had the same problems, and upgraded
to CVS HEAD to see if there was a difference.

There wasn't (expept that I now have all the bells and whistles of CVS
HEAD).  However, my exerience since then has been that if you submit a
bug report, with a suggested solution, to the Asterisk bugs site (even
if it is purely a FreeBSD compatibility bug), a patch has been
committed within a few hours.  So, for the moment, I'm running CVS
HEAD as per 26 March with no FreeBSD specific bugs that I know of.  (I
mostly use SIP and Zap channels, AGI scripting, meetme, and
voicemail.)
