*BSD GHC hackers needed...

While perusing the tickets in the 6.10.1 milestone I spotted 3 that look to
be FreeBSD-specific:
2476 internal error: awaitEvent: descriptor out of range
2502 segfault with GHC.Handle.fdToHandle'
2511 unix package doesnt load in ghci on freebsd/amd64
It's unlikely that we'll get to these in time for 6.10.1. Any FreeBSD
hackers out there want to take a look? Help/advice is available as usual.
There's also one NetBSD-specific ticket:
2351 NetBSD defines ELF_ST_TYPE
(that one is easy), and one that I think applies to all the *BSDs:
2063 Breackage on OpenBSD due to mmap remap
(actually the latter one is a top priority, because without it GHCi can't
work, so we need it fixed for 6.10.1).
Cheers,
Simon
