Er, you do know that Debian themselves have had an experimental release with the FreeBSD kernel rather than the Linux kernel for the last couple of releases?

Actually, I don't think there has been a release of Debian GNU/kFreeBSD for Wheezy yet.

Debian GNU/kFreeBSD was part of both Squeeze and Wheezy releases.

Does the FreeBSD kernel provide any practical advantages over the Linux kernel ?

It seems that supporting the FreeBSD kernel, which has less functionality than the Linux kernel, is actually counter-productive, as the former prevents employing new technologies present in the latter.

ZFS seems to be the main attraction.
