Looking at file endings in Freecad I found .csg for opencascade and used this file ending, did open in both Freecad or Openscad with empty view.
 
Trying today again with default filename .scad and it open in Openscad so export is fine. In Freecad it have however not opened in minutes and now is not responding.
 
While not part of pcb-rnd it may still be of some interest for others here to import into Freecad so I did some testing. May have to open openscad workbench to make .scad file ending visible in import dialog but only got waiting for minutes without result with .scad files. Many trials and at one point I where able to import board shape from .csg exported from Openscad but are not able to reproduce again. Import .dxf file however work although slow. These are however problems of Freecad and not pcb-rnd.
