  N.B. GCC also supports Dragonfly BSD now, and that runs well in a VM.
  
I have {Open,Net,Free}BSD all running under Xen on many machines, but I
never got Dragonfly to work properly; the UFS filesystem becomes
inconsistent within some days (and the "Hammer" fs requires too much
memory for my setup).

  Solaris and Darwin are the targets I most often wish I could test on.
  
I have Solaris running under Xen.  It works well, but was a pain to get
working.  It also often hangs during boot, the only solution I found
around that is to retry booting by means of a script.
  
I have puredarwin running under KVM.  It is 32-bit only, which is not
too useful today.
