At the time that radeonhd development was stopped, the only thing that driver supported, which radeon was missing, was HDMI audio support. radeon does now support that, but only via KMS. As a result, if you have an HD4xxx or HD5xxx GPU on FreeBSD/OpenBSD, radeonhd is the only way to get audio from the sound card. That's the only time I would recommend radeonhd over radeon any more.
