I'd like to see it here
http://netbsd.org/Documentation/pkgsrc/platforms.html#freebsd
and in section 4.2.3, maybe if it said 

      * Darwin (Mac OS X) * DragonFly BSD * FreeBSD * Interix
      (Windows 2000, XP, 2003) * IRIX * Linux * OpenBSD * Solaris
      * Tru64" (Digital UNIX/OSF1)

(instead of 'Note') I'd have noticed. :-\

I'm not being sarcastic, I scanned the doc many times looking for
FreeBSD notes, but only found them in secton 3.2.

Best,
