Tried that.

root@vas:/d02/vm/win # file bhyve.log
bhyve.log: empty

root@vas:/d02/vm/win # more win.conf
guest="windows"
uefi="yes"
graphics="yes"
cpu=1
memory=1G
network0_type="virtio-net"
network0_switch="isolated"
disk0_type="ahci-hd"
disk0_name="disk0.img"
debug="yes"
uuid="093f9134-5e18-11e6-9502-5404a6b49a66"
network0_mac="58:9c:fc:03:77:3b"
root@vas:/d02/vm/win #

I have tried replicating manually all the options vm is passing to
bhyve, like 

bhyve -c 1 -m 1G -Hwl bootrom,/d02/vm/.config/BHYVE_UEFI.fd \
        -U 093f9134-5e18-11e6-9502-5404a6b49a66 \
        -s 0,hostbridge -s 31,lpc -s 4:0,ahci-hd,/d02/vm/win/disk0.img \
        -s 5:0,virtio-net,tap5,mac=58:9c:fc:03:77:3b -s 6:0,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900,wait \
        -l com1,stdio \
        -s 3:0,ahci-cd,/d02/vm/.iso/bhyve_win7_x64.iso

But bhyve just spits out the "usage" help (that's why it exits
immediately). But I cannot find out what's incorrect with the options.
