I found two posts containing patches regarding this issue:
1)
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=0+0+archive/2008/freebsd-emulation/20081228.freebsd-emulation
2)
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=0+0+archive/2009/freebsd-emulation/20090215.freebsd-emulation

The first post contains two patches, of which one is marked specifically for
7-STABLE (as of Dec 21, 2008 when the patches were made available). The
second post also has a patch, but I don't know whether it is for 8-CURRENT
or 7-STABLE. Which one should I apply?

Thanks :)
