Not sure why I didn't think to compare. PDF printing is great ... even a no-op is fine. It's just a pain when chromium crashes just as you click to save/print your boarding pass :-D Anyway, I will leave to FreeBSD port maintainer to apply as they see fit :) These patches seem small enough to be reviewable (i.e. not like the BSD "monster patch" I was told about in #chromium). Are they being gradually accepted upstream. The patch review process seems fairly serious so I wonder if there's someway to accept a large set of patches and "catch up".
