Yes, the emacs build does some rather unusual things and it's perhaps
not surprising that it's one of the ports that's giving grief with
lld.

The exp-run shows the same error you experienced:

./temacs --batch --load loadup bootstrap
Fatal error 'Can't allocate initial thread' at line 337 in file
/poudriere/jails/headamd64PR214864/usr/src/lib/libthr/thread/thr_init.c
(errno = 12)
gmake[2]: *** [Makefile:737: bootstrap-emacs] Abort trap (core dumped)

I don't yet have any insight into the failure, and hope that someone
with knowledge of the emacs build process and emacs internals can take
a look.
