In practice the default should be the lowest supported FreeBSD and in practice it should never be set to the unstable version. There are probably less than 5 instances of using arguments. It's pretty rare for the s/w to be checking the value of __FreeBSD__ and really rare for that same s/w to already support FreeBSD 12. I was thinking about bringing in 12 when 9 falls off or 12 is released, whichever comes first. That should be okay. John
