I don't have an rpi but I would recommend testing the ‎binaries provided on the download page to get a baseline answer. Head would have the best support for new boards after that. Code stability is hit or miss (mostly hit right now)  but when you get a good build its generally stable in my experience. TrueOS is based on Head. 

If your looking for stability on rpi3, using the 32bit build would probably be a prudent choice as aarch64 is work in progress.

Thanks for your answer.
I had read both those documents (and others), but it's hard to tell what 
information is fresh and what is obsolete, as FreeBSD on Raspberry seems 
to be a moving target.

I'd happily avoid switching to CURRENT, so if anyone can help in 
identifying which is the minimum version needed (e.g. 11-STABLE?), it 
would help me much.
Also some more techinal discussion about what is missing from 11.1 would 
be very welcome.

bye & Thanks
av.
