Well, in my opinion, if the BSD people have all ready abandoned it, it
is probably time for you to do so also. With FreeBSD-8.1 officially
released, continued use of a deprecate OS makes no sense at all,
assuming that the OP knows how to upgrade his installation. If he
doesn't, then that is a whole new ballgame.
