FreeBSD will be the party honoring it, not Google, even for
non-conforming implementations of the DNT header.

The full patch will be released shortly but it will look something like:

if (window.navigator.doNotTrack !== "yes") {
     ( function() {
         var ga = document.createElement('script');
         ga.type = 'text/javascript';
         ga.async = true;
         ga.src = 'https://ssl.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
         var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
         s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
     })();

}
