At least it was in this state a while ago when I've fixed some compile errors. I just check it again. You'll need to explicitly run ./configure --without-network --without-polkit because libvirt's virtual networking code is specific to Linux bridges and libvirt doesn't polkit on FreeBSD yet.

Then it compiles for me. There are still several warnings about NULL format strings and devname shadowing a global symbol.

Maybe Eric knows if this warning is critical: util/sexpr.c: In function 'sexpr2string': util/sexpr.c:250: warning: null format string [-Wformat] virSexprError(VIR_ERR_SEXPR_SERIAL, NULL);
