Quite possible. I'm doing the compiling in a VM, so I'll just create another.

I suppose I may as well put TrueNAS in a VM and do my compiling in that.  Then I match up perfectly.

Can't wait. :) Our linux VMs die every few days. Either I get this fixed or I abandon bhyve. I've seen on the TrueNAS forums that you don't seem to experience this problem, I wish I knew what was different about our setups. Some other easier workaround would be fine by me. :)

According to https://reviews.freebsd.org/D39620#978524 it's in stable/13 but not releng/13.2.  Who/where should I request it get into the latter?  In that ticket I guess?

PS: thanks for your many helpful comments on the TrueNAS forum BTW!
