Hello? BSDL calling. You left your GPL here and we don't want it.

For some of these uses of FreeBSD - I really have to wonder if
GNU/kFreeBSD (Debian GNU/kFreeBSD is a port that consists of GNU userland
using the GNU C library on top of FreeBSD's kernel) isn't a better
choice. http://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/

One can keep their kernel changes private IP without worry. I doubt most
companies would claim they have IP that needs protecting in their GNU
userland changes.
