AFAIK, not released yet.  There is work on real-time and SMP FreeBSD
(not the same project.)  

: and btw, what's the different between netbsd, 386bsd, and freebsd?

Well, they are different OS's stemming from the same grandfather OS.
One is as well as dead (386,) one is focused to multiplatform support
(Net,) and one is focused to Intel (compatible) hardware (Free.)

Maybe, but definitely not very likely (dons asbestos suit.)
