Support for FreeBSD is almost always done on behalf of FreeBSD contributors, not the program developers. I do not want to play the cat-and-mouse game of constantly updating shims so we can support Linux software. I would rather take the sensible* parts of Linux and integrate them into core FreeBSD.

Could you quickly summarize why we need these linuxish bits in FreeBSD?

The amount of software designed exclusively=C2=A0fo= r Linux grows every day. Support for FreeBSD is almost always done on behal= f of FreeBSD contributors, not the program developers.

I'll let Jake answer this= and

I think his new review=C2=A0https://revi= ews.freebsd.org/D41600 addresses this issue maybe
