Following up on this thread, I've setup another auto-tester project with 
just two new freebsd machines, 10.3 and 11.0.  The purpose is to allow 
anyone who has the time and desire to help fix the issues to have a 
place to view the results.  So please, submit pull requests so we can 
get the issues fixed and retire the old 8.x machines.

The github project they're building is 
github.com/braddr/dmd|druntime|phobos/tree/freebsd-update.
