The patches should be applied in all cases (i.e. 4.x as well); if the patch contains code that should not be compiled in the 4.x case then compile it conditionally using something like: #if defined(__FreeBSD__) && (__FreeBSD_version >= 5000xx) ... #endif See the porter's handbook for more information about this.
