Sorry, this was not helpful... (it's late here, local time).

There is a write up from Julian and Marko in perforce at
 	//depot/projects/vimage/porting_to_vimage.txt
You can also get to that using the web frontends, either
http://perforce.freebsd.org/ or http://p4web.freebsd.org/
which would probably be a good thing to start with and it could be
further enahnced as more things would need explanation.

If in doubt there is the freebsd-virtualization_at_ mailing list where
you could ask as well or try to ping any of the reviewers of the first
stage commit.
