Fully PV FreeBSD kernel would be better but available PV drivers for HVM can
still be useful (and might be an easier goal).
I don't think that FreeBSD 7 includes Xen support but there is a branch of the
FreeBSD 7 tree available which has Xen support code in it. This may not be
up-to-date wrt to the mainline 7 tree, though.

The port actually worked, I think, but there was integration and cleanup work
required to make it suitable for inclusion in mainline FreeBSD. Last I
heard, the project was stalled on that. I think the project needs a new
maintainer if it's going to get anywhere.
Cheers,
