Searching indicates that FreeBSD exports two sysctls, acct_configured
and acct_suspended. 

I'm not sure from reading their source if they support multiple
concurrent accounting targets , as I'm not familar with their VFS code.
(Linux does, and you can see it used if you start use bootchart in an
init that also brings up a normal accounting instance)
