FYI: I've been using the following Privoxy filter for several months now:

FILTER: freebsd.org Hides some design bugs that show up if you are using sl=
ightly different browser settings than the "designer".

It works around the problems that annoyed me the most, you might
want to give it a try to see if it improves things for you as well.

I'm aware that it doesn't hide all problems, but so far I
didn't run into a single page that looked worse than
before.

The filter works by overruling the original CSS files,
mostly to honor the user's default settings which should
be perfect. If the browser doesn't support that,
the filter will not have the desired results and might
even make things worse.

If the fixes would be applied to the original CSS files
(one can dream) this wouldn't be a problem.

Given the fact that FreeBSD.org is broken for quite some
time now, I'm tempted to include the filter in the
Privoxy port and have it enabled by default.

In other words: feedback welcome.

If you don't use Privoxy and don't feel like installing it,
you can quickly test the filter by accessing FreeBSD.org
through the HTTP proxy "tor.fabiankeil.de:8118".

Please note that the Privoxy version running there is based
on alpha code and verbose logging is enabled for debugging purposes
(currently that includes client headers and client IP addresses).

Also the hardware has issues and as a result the
server will not be available 24/7.
