If someone puts in the effort to make it so, yes.
Note that dumping the current patches from FreeBSD ports on the list is
generally not sufficient. Blindly posting patches without explanation is a
good way to get them ignored.
All patches should include a description of what they are fixing (ie. what
qemu currently does wrong), how the patch fixes it, and why this is the right
way to fix it. For OS specific hacks there needs to be a good reason why that
OS is special.
If you can't answer all the above questions then you shouldn't be submitting
the patch. In some cases you may need to rewriting the patches to meet these
criteria. Individual OS/Distros tend to be less picky because they only care
whether the result works on that one system.
