I can add something.  To date there aren't any user-visible changes.  There is
one flag defined that indicates that the running FreeBSD kernel supports a new
'sigfastblock' system call that allows a thread to register a signal mask in user
memory that is treated as the signal mask so that sigprocmask() can just modify
that mask in userland without invoking actual system calls.  It's not documented
though aside from the upstream commit message.
