I certainly want to fold back any necessary changes into Base, and I can 
forward any other substantive changes to Janet who manages extensions and 
MEDM.  We don't currently have an active maintainer for FreeBSD which is why 
the code that we do have for it didn't work properly for you.  Please send me 
a patch file and I'll take a look.

Thanks,

- Andrew
