FYI the 2021-Mar-04 snapshot:

FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20210304-483c6da3a20-257149.img

contains:

# strings /mnt/start4.elf | grep VC_BUILD_ID_
VC_BUILD_ID_USER: dom
VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: 22:19:57
VC_BUILD_ID_VARIANT: start
VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: Jan 27 2021
VC_BUILD_ID_BRANCH: bcm2711_2
VC_BUILD_ID_HOSTNAME: buildbot
VC_BUILD_ID_PLATFORM: raspberrypi_linux
VC_BUILD_ID_VERSION: 99d9a48302e4553cff3688692bb7e9ac760a03fa (clean)

and so is not yet based on the 1.20210303 tagged
firmware:

# strings /boot/efi/start4.elf | grep VC_BUILD_ID_
VC_BUILD_ID_USER: dom
VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: 12:10:40
VC_BUILD_ID_VARIANT: start
VC_BUILD_ID_TIME: Feb 25 2021
VC_BUILD_ID_BRANCH: bcm2711_2
VC_BUILD_ID_HOSTNAME: buildbot
VC_BUILD_ID_PLATFORM: raspberrypi_linux
VC_BUILD_ID_VERSION: 564e5f9b852b23a330b1764bcf0b2d022a20afd0 (clean)
