 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+- FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD (amd64, `sysv_amd64` ABI) are built and tested on every commit by a new `build and test bsd` workflow.
+
+### Fixed
+- ABI detection now works on the BSDs: `tools/abiname.sh` used a `mktemp` template with three `X`s, which BSD `mktemp(1)` rejects.
