I can't speak for the other BSDs, but OpenBSD has been doing a lot of work regar
ding blocking memory that is marked both as writable and executable at the same
time(which is bad), have introduced privilege/capabilities syscalls for security
purposes, and have started working hard in virtualitation.
They have also introduced binary updates for both base and ports. The case used
to be that you were supposed to compile the updates haha.
