That is an unfair comparison. The technical differences between BSD and linux
are not as much as postgresql and mysql. Besides what is the parallel of SQL
standard in OS world? POSIX? And both BSD/linux are doing fine sitting next
to each other on that.

After porting my small application in less than half an hour from linux to
freeBSD and vice versa, I really do not agree with that comment. Not even in
the spirit of it.
