I'm pretty sure that 8.3 does not support it, this is very new feature.

9.1-RELEASE.

9.1's code is already totally frozen, you may consider it as released
(you can already update existing systems with freebsd-update), and
moreover, it will be supported by security team as "Extended support"
(with my secteam@ hat on, 2 years at least, from the release date).
