I'd like to add bsdiff/bspatch into the base system. I initially wrote these as part of FreeBSD Update, but I'm now also using them in portsnap, and bspatch has been part of the OS X base system for most of the past year as a result of being used by their patches. My reason for wanting to add this is that portsnap is next on my hit list, and I obviously need to get this done first.

Any objections?

While it's probably easy to guess from the names, can you explain what they are?
