Actually the site does not "display well" in all
four major browsers in general:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=91539

It might work with your browser configuration but it
fails with others.

And while it might (or might not) be accessible for blind users,
visually impaired users run into problems if they increase
the browser's default font size.
