The autotester is currently at FreeBSD 8.4. This is rather obsolete. The linker that is standard on 8.4 is causing problems:

The oldest supported version of FreeBSD stands at 10.3:

I know the linker with FreeBSD 11.0 does work correctly. I don't know which FreeBSD version it was fixed on.

So the question is, can we at least move to FreeBSD 10.3 as the minimum supported version? Is anyone very dependent on an older FreeBSD? Is there a case for supporting FreeBSD versions that are officially unsupported?
