I think this is a sensible policy, even though FreeBSD is a platform
that people are testing and care about, but currently lacks a
buildbot.  One of the reasons for that is that until recently building
QEMU on FreeBSD required patches only found in the FreeBSD ports tree.

I hope that we'll have a FreeBSD 9.1 and CURRENT buildbot available shortly.
