RHEV will inherit the guest support from RHEL's qemu-kvm.
To date there are now plans to add formal support or an SLA for FreeBSD.
It's likely that this will work in RHEL 7 qemu-kvm as it's based on a newer version of qemu-kvm. From what I can see upstream positive reports of bsd working are on qemu 0.14 and higher.
