I just browsed https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ though not your specific destination.

I was more immediately interested in changes to GENERIC for amd64 and i386.

All was successful.  I am in NetBSD-current i386 (7.99.15), using Firefox 37.0.2 nightly build.

I was also successful in updating FreeBSD src, ports and doc trees with subversion (built from NetBSD pkgsrc).
