They already dropped support for older freebsd systems and at some point discussed to drop freebsd as a first-class target. Already hard to judge the risks for non amd64-linux systems.

The issue was about clarifying what "first-class" meant more than about changing how we treat FreeBSD.

Which language dropped support for older FreeBSD systems? Go supports FreeBSD 8-STABLE and above, Rust has FreeBSD as a second-tier platform.
