Does it affect FreeBSD ?  If so, I guess security-officer@ will
already be drafting a notification; If not, might it be good PR
anyway to put out a brief summary / statement on a mail list or web page ?

Latest advisories are old & don't refer to this TLS.
http://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories.html is 2015-04-07
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-security-notifications/2015-April/date.html 7th April

PS Though src/ is traditionaly prime concern, I cc'd ports@ too,
re. the 24,064 ported packages in http://www.freebsd.org/ports/

Cheers,
Julian
