FWIW https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2016-September/273691.html ;) I'm a x86_64 user, so I don't care about it regarding my needs. However, Arch users who don't need new machines for their needs, easily could run into the same issue, as this FreeBSD user. The whole FreeBSD list missed the forest for the trees. I only noticed it, because I'm subscribed to another FreeBSD list, too. IMO we could assume that FreeBSD users are a similar target group as Arch users. If so, then it could cause a lot of pain for Arch users and maintainers, too. Regards, Ralf
