+FreeBSD host notes:
+- needs to run as root in order to use /dev/tap* networking (why?)
+- slirp (usermode networking) compiles but doesn't seem to work for
+me - seems to have a timer problem (time sleep 1 takes 49 seconds
+and booting sleeps for minutes at the acd0 probe), but only on
+_some_ guest systems (FreeSBIE, knoppix.) An installed 5.2.1 guest
+system works ok (this also doesn't happen with linux as host.) And
+enabling /dev/rtc doesn't help either... (not included since it
+needs a patch to emulators/rtc.)
+- using physical media doesn't work on 4.x hosts (missing DIOCGMEDIASIZE
+ioctl)
