There's no statvfs-wrapper on FreeBSD because it doesn't have 
statvfs(). But there's statfs() which might be sufficient:

FreeBSD has statvfs(3) since FreeBSD 5.0.
Looking at FreeBSD's statvfs implementation (which
is a wrapper function for statfs system call), statfs
has little bit different structure than statvfs and
it may need some translation routine.

FreeBSD 4 is on the way to being a legacy platform,
and you can still use py-freebsd to utilize statfs(2)
on FreeBSD 4 and older.  So I'm sorry but I don't
feel that adding some ifdef blocks is worthy enough.

My FreeBSD 6.2 machine has os.statvfs.
