Hello.
While we are still in the dark here, 4.11 was released today, obsoleting 
4.8, which I think is the default version on FreeBSD.

Sorry for being pedantic, but I believe a lot of us would benefit from 
some guidance:
_ should we upgrade promptly to 4.10? Will it work or will it be a waste 
of time?
_ should we stay on 4.8, because it will be the default on FreeBSD for a 
long time still? And will it be fixed?
_ should we just wait for a (working) 4.11 to come our way? When will 
this happen?

  bye & Thanks
