Anyone familiar with the OS repositories for OVAL
<http://oval.mitre.org/repository/>?  Considering how similar these dbs are to
vuln.xml it seems odd that FreeBSD is not represented as a "supported
operating system".

If any XML devs are reading this, how difficult would it be to write a
translation script?
