well that's very nice, definitely interested in those freebsd patches !
not 100% sure those will get in 6.9 though as we're slowly moving towards
lock, but send them anyway, and we'll figure out what we can do from
there. I suppose those come from https://github.com/aborche/qemu-guest-agent ?

in all cases, emulators/qemu has a MAINTAINER, so make sure to directly
cc him in your next messages :)
