Arnall,

This advice is less of an haproxy specific response, and more of
general information.

As someone who's tried to manage mixed infrastructure, I would push
back if possible, unles syour organization has decided to move to
freebsd entirely.

Having more than one OS to maintain means writing all of your
management scripts,  configurations, etc at least once per OS flavor
(worse if you have different major versions of OS's too)   subscribing
to double the security mailing lists,  doubling up your lab and QA
environments,  etc.


I would try to stick with whatever OS the bulk of your infrastructure
runs on, unless your team has made the concious effort to move to
another OS en-masse.


(That said,  you may want to look at the dev mailing list the last
month or so, about freebsd specific issues and patches.  there have
been a couple in the last couple of weeks.)
