Comment:

 The uptime that arm reports is based on ps results when running on BSD. If
 I'm unable to parse the value then it's left blank. I recall that OpenBSD
 has a particularly insane value for this field, providing the time that
 the process started in *local 12-hour time*. In that case I figured they
 deserved for me to treat it as being unparseable. :P

 That said, I thought that this worked on FreeBSD. Here's the part where I
 parse the ps results...
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/arm.git/blob/HEAD:/src/util/sysTools.py#l495

 In particular, the uiTools.parseShortTimeLabel() function...
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/arm.git/blob/HEAD:/src/util/uiTools.py#l493

 Patches welcome if you want to make this accommodate whatever FreeBSD is
 giving you.
