I've compile-tested it on FreeBSD (well, I had to do some conflict
resolution in virstring to get this patch to apply, so I hope that when
you rebase, that you end up doing the same resolution - but the
conflicts didn't affect the BSD section of virprocess.c).  It didn't
quite work:

util/virprocess.c: In function 'virProcessGetStartTime':
util/virprocess.c:850: error: incompatible type for argument 3 of 'sysctl'

I think you want to pass &p, not p, as the third argument (at least,
doing that cleared up compilation for me, although I don't know how to
test that the compiled result actually worked).
