I'm aware of these 2, and there are some other niggling issues with FreeBSD 5.x that I've been looking at. Some of these issues won't stabilise until the FreeBSD team choose to declare 5.x a "stable" branch. 5.0 in particular is not a good release to target for solid support.

I might have the opportunity to at least run the tests on FreeBSD 5.1. I just set up my first FreeBSD system on the weekend :)

However, it will probably have to wait until the weekend when I have time to actually *configure* the system - I got it to the stage of being able to run KDE and that was it - then I felt I'd earned my chance to watch my "Spirited Away" DVD :)
