Being one of the FreeBSD guys I'll throw peanuts at you. :P In any case, 6.3 is from early 2008 and 6.4 is from November 2008. The 6-STABLE branch is still open and a lot of users are still tracking this. However, the main focus is 7 and with 8 looming on the horizon. And FreeBSD 7 does away with libcr and uses a whole different model for its threading. Are the tests going ok there? If so, then I shouldn't worry about the 6 branch.

:)

Thanks for your input. I've done the paper shuffling so someone else can pick up the FreeBSD cleanup job as a new issue...
