FreeBSD's threads library, libc_r, has had many features and performance
improvements added, which makes it almost completely POSIX-compliant.
The following dedicated IPv6 applications have been added:

usr.sbin/pim6dd, usr.sbin/pim6sd, usr.sbin/prefix, usr.sbin/rip6query,
usr.sbin/route6d, usr.sbin/rrenumd, usr.sbin/rtadvd, usr.sbin/rtsold,
usr.sbin/traceroute6
The following applications have been updated to support IPv6:
usr.bin/netstat, usr.bin/fstat, usr.bin/sockstat, usr.sbin/tcpdchk,
usr.sbin/tcpdump, usr.sbin/trpt, libexec/ftpd, libexec/rlogind,
libexec/rshd, libexec/telnetd
