That's correct, technically at least. (And as far as FreeBSD hiostory is
concerned.)

It appeared in (what became) 8.0. By the time
http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=194262 was
committed, 7.* branches had already been split from head.
http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=195694 then
backported to 7.(mumble)
