64 bit linux binary support

[William A. Mahaffey III]

The FreeBSD wiki reports that there is no support for running 64-bit 
linux binaries under FreeBSD. The file utility does recognize the binary 
format, including listing a runtime loader to use when running them:

Furthermore, the docker wiki page refers to newly available (as of last 
summer) 64-bit linux support. How is progress for supporting execution 
of 64-bit linux binaries proceeding ? TIA & have a good one.


P.S. I also noticed a docker pkg available for some months now for 9.3R. 
I installed it a while back, but haven't played around w/ it yet. The 
docker wiki page says docker only runs under FSSD 11.0, is the 9.3R pkg 
just a robo-build artifact, or possibly working OK-ish ?
