Cirrus CI shut down on 2026-06-01, which removed the FreeBSD unit test coverage. Run the same test command in a FreeBSD VM booted under QEMU/KVM on a regular ubuntu-latest runner, keeping the skips .cirrus.yml carried. The suite runs as an unprivileged user: src/su/context.rs notes that invalid_shell is allowed to fail under root, and the VM logs in as root.
get_process_start_time compared a ProcessCreateTime against a value built by destructuring SystemTime, which bypasses the newtype that keeps the two clock bases apart. That is a no-op on Linux and fails deterministically on FreeBSD, where kinfo_proc.ki_start is absolute wall clock while CLOCK_BOOTTIME is an alias for the uptime clock. Restore the cfg-aware ProcessCreateTime::now() helper removed in 62d1d30 and document why it cannot be folded into SystemTime::now(), which must keep reading the monotonic clock (see trifectatechfoundation#1022).
