Heh, it was a trivial issue :-(

Apparently, osinfo_loader_process_list() fails if it cannot find pci.ids
or usb.ids. On FreeBSD it isn't installed to PKG_DATA_DIR where libosinfo
expects them to be. I set it with --with-usb-ids-path and
--with-pci-ids-path in the FreeBSD port, but didn't use these flags when
building from git. Now it works fine.

Thanks for your help!
