Not a big issue ...
First of all, what you have mentioned here (i.e. all of *.h) files are the header files and not the libraries.

Secondly, whatever API you want to use, which are available in FreeBSD; just do the following command to search the appropriate header file in Linux (I'm talking general and not just for the header files you are mentioning here):

Code:
grep -nr <function_API_name> /usr/include/*

Where <function_API_name> is the actual function name you think available in a header file (.h file) under FreeBSD but not found by you under Linux.

This command will give you the header file containing the decleration of such function. You just need to include this header file now.
