Labels changed: added release-go1.3maybe, removed release-go1.3.

Comment 2:

For the record, this is easy enough for people with access to those systems for testing.
1) Make sure the syscall package defines SOCK_CLOEXEC and Accept4.
2) Change the build constraints so that net/sock_cloexec.go is built instead of
net/sys_cloexec.go.

Comment 3:

> 2) Change the build constraints
It works to see the gap btw platforms but doesn't work for the gap btw kernel versions.

Comment 5:

Sounds the retreat... this issue just focuses on FreeBSD.
