I finally got the boot into FreeBSD to work.

Here's what I put in 40_custom before running update-grub:

...
menuentry "freebsd" {
      set root=(hd0,2,a)
      chainloader +1
      boot
}

So the root specification is based on the FreeBSD slice (number) and
partition (letter) method of specifying a partition, as in the legacy
GRUB, except that the primary partition ("slice") numbering starts at
1 rather than 0.
