Default Programming on *BSD

I have been meaning to do this for a while. I'm very interested in making OpenBSD (and the other BSDs) the place to go to program. And so I want to collate some lists of the following:

1. Languages that are supported

2. Languages that are absolutely required for you to have

3. Languages that would be nice to have

4. Compilers/interpreters/toolchains for languages in an above category (including 1) that we don't have that would be good to have (e.g. other C compilers). This includes work-in-progress ports.

And maybe inspire some people to go out and make ports of the items in categories 2, 3, and 4.

The lists below are being sorted as follows:
Language
List of implementations (if applicable, many languages are their implementations and there's only one)
OS support (for category 1)

For brevity in reporting OS support in category 1, I mean FreeBSD+DragonFly BSD when I say FreeBSD. If there are no OS support notes, it means it is available on all 4 major BSDs (Free/Open/Net/DFly).
