Perhaps you could help fund the development of FreeBSD support for Xen?

AFAIK lack of funding is what's keeping the development slow, though it
does go on: http://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/Xen

  xen docs doesn't talk about support for FreeBSD..
  Only Linux and Windows! The doc says the Guest
  operating system must be aware on running virtualized!
  Does FreeBSD supports it?

Have you looked at this:

Hope it helps,

Well ... depends on your needs
Yes you can install FreeBSD 7 as a DomU, Ive done so under Debian and Ubuntu
server
I have 10 FreeBSD 7/8 DomUs running under XEN 3.1.2
Usability is somewhat questionable, though Ive had recently some better
stability for light work
compiling world/kernel is still a bit iffy with GCC core dumps
adding ports is doable, light load is doable, networking bridged appears ok
booting a DomU can also sometimes hang ( frequest) when using the -c flag
useable, yes to a degree... heavy productions work... No, definatley not at
this time
rumour says XEN HVM Hypervisor and KVM ( linux) both show riunning freebsd
on virtualized
platforms to be more stable and usable
