  What about /run or /proc?

    There is no /run by default on FreeBSD (only /var/run), and /proc (procfs) is being phased out since 2011.

  My resolv.confs tend to be written once and then go untouched for months if not years. The problem there is that distributions, be it linux or bsd, lack a proper way to distinguish between a "static" resolv.conf and a (always-)generated one. An "easy" fix would be to mandate that if /etc/resolv.conf contains a "dynamic" key then /run/resolve.conf (or /var/run/resolv.conf or whatver) is read as well (or instead). However, tons of stuff tries to parse resolv.conf, so it would be better to have a user-editable /etc/resolv.conf.conf and a /run/dynamic-resolve.conf and dump the result or into /etc/resolv.conf to keep compatible.
