Why bundle Linux and FreeBSD in one option?

I considered the two 'similar enough' from a point of view of
architecture and organization to merge them (aka Unix-like). I admit,
that I never used FreeBSD though.
Anyway the numbers nicely show, that neither Windows nor
Linux(-compatible) are underrepresented in the D community. My personal
opinion is that the number of Windows users is actually low, considering
its market share and other surveys like this:

It depends on how you see it. Both FreeBSD and Mac OS X are built on a BSD foundation but Linux is not. On the other hand FreeBSD and Linux uses ELF binaries but Mac OS X use Mach-O.
