As many of you will know I have been working adding ARM EABI support to
FreeBSD. I believe I am at a suitable stage for others people to test.

To test you will need to checkout the arm_eabi project branch from SVN.
The code is a available for checkout with subversion from:
http://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/arm_eabi

You can them build and install in the usual way.

Known bugs (feel free to fix):
 - Kernel back trace is unimplemented.
 - newsyslog crashes on start.
 - GDB crashes with EABI binaries.
