I've also noticed a > 2.3.9 rev now in beta. I have it integrated in my local source tree, although I haven't yet had time to test it. My computer is still in Australia as I speak; I'm in LA, and it'll be a few weeks before I can get it shipped over. Note that the FreeBSD 3.x patches in the distribution are partially b0rked - they seem to try and provide support for synchronous devices using nonexistent ioctls. I haven't yet contacted the patch author about this. From memory, I think the only changes between 2.3.8 and the 2.3.9 prerelease were non-freebsd specific.
