Lots.  Primarily stability and integration of distribution -- there is one
and only one, and when you say you have 2.1.7-RELEASE, everyone knows what
you're talking about.  No more "I'm on libc ver x and kernel ver y, why
doesn't z work?".  

This is a touchy issue, so I'll refer you to the mail archives at
http://www.freebsd.org (under 'Search') for the range of opinions.
