What is the status of that project if I may ask ? I did some research on 
it some time ago but the best I could find was that there was someone 
porting vmware-workstation 4.5.X to FreeBSD allthough there were quite a 
lot problems so there wasn't much progress it seemed.

Anyway; VM's and FreeBSD don't go well indeed :( vmware3 is just 
outdated, it won't work as Xen host (yet;  .. it was on the SoC list, 
but I'm not sure how much has become of it ) and qemu is a nice attempt 
but it's just not good enough ( especially since kqemu locks up my 
system in CURRENT ). It would be great if FreeBSD could be a VM-host.
