People working on chromium (now, I'm not anymore) would know better but Goo=

talks/papers available out there explaining that. But on the otherside upst=

never accepted (or almost never accepted) our patches to run on freebsd

the
capsicum patches were never integrated neither upstream neither on freebsd.=

btw big thanks to the people working on keeping chromium working on FreeBSD
given how unfriendly upstream is...

Google chrome team is not friendly to projects which are not Linux, Windows=
 or
Mac OS.
