+macOS 10.9+     i386, x86_64, arm64       ???-???                Building the shared library itself requires targetting macOS 10.11+
+FreeBSD 10+     i386, x86_64, arm         ???-???
+Linux           i386, x86_64, arm, arm64  glibc-2.24+
----------------
FreeBSD 10 and 11 are out of support now, so we likely won't be testing against the libc they came with. I think it would be fine to make this FreeBSD 12+. In addition, FreeBSD uses/supports libc++ across all of our supported architectures -- 32- and 64-bit x86, arm, powerpc, as well as 64-bit riscv.

FreeBSD has an integrated base system that includes the kernel, libc, userland tools etc., and generally doesn't have a concept of alternate libcs -- e.g. FreeBSD 12.3 has FreeBSD 12.3 libc. I'm not sure what we'd put in this table.

Perhaps we should just put the required glibc version in Notes for the Linux row?
