Surprisingly, BSD host seems to be a dominating factor.

Until a few days ago, qemu+kqemu was the only practical way to run a 
virtual machine on FreeBSD. Virtualbox has just been committed to ports 
and a number of users will probably switch to using that now.

Personally I would prefer qemu+kvm if there was a FreeBSD port of kvm. I 
probably lack both the time and skills to help with that. :(

This wasn't a politically correct poll! ;)

As far as I can tell this is pretty far from being usable. It was not 
complete at the end of SoC and was not imported to either the src tree 
or as a port and has thus not been maintained since then.

Does anyone know if it has bitrotted too much to serve as a starting 
point for a working port?

Well, the map is restricted to US. But the link above offered me the
data of the poll results in Bavaria (there were actually 4 votes). :)

kvm-17 is ridiculously outdated.  You could probably salvage some stuff 
out of it, but not much.

Also missing is preempt-notifier emulation or support.
