Excellent! I just noticed printing does not crash chromium on openbsd. Not 
sure why I didn't think to compare.

PDF printing is great ... even a no-op is fine. It's just a pain when 
chromium crashes just as you click to save/print your boarding pass :-D 
Anyway, I will leave to FreeBSD port maintainer to apply as they see fit :)

These patches seem small enough to be reviewable (i.e. not like the BSD 
"monster patch" I was told about in #chromium). Are they being gradually 
accepted upstream. The patch review process seems fairly serious so I 
wonder if there's someway to accept a large set of patches and "catch up".
