FreeBSD has libvirt port:

http://www.freshports.org/devel/libvirt/

It is maintained by Jason Helfman (CCed), so I think he's more

Packages are supplied to users as part of our standard package distribution sets for releases and standard updates of our package sets.
It has been distributed as a package since it was committed to the FreeBSD ports tree.
