--- Comment #9 from Johannes Lundberg <johalun@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Helge Oldach from comment #8)

LLVMPipe is used in the new DRM based graphics drivers for virtual machines.
They're still WIP but coming soon and will improve performance and usabilit=
y of
FreeBSD in VMs.

As for asking for special treatment, there's nothing stopping you from keep=
ing
your own branch or set of local patches. We all do for stuff we don't want
to/shouldn't upstream.

What should be done on the other hand, is have poudriere or ports have the
ability to install build dependencies (like LLVM) from pre-built packages
instead of building from source.
