I think it was from the very beginning actually.

Modules for ACPI extras are currently built only on
i386 and amd64.  ACPI is also needed on ia64 but it
is broken as a module there, and these extras do not
apply on ia64 (I don't believe there exist any ia64
laptops but I may be mistaken).

I think a more careful approach should be taken instead:

1) Determine which of these modules makes sense to
   to have on both i386 and amd64.  Repocopy the
   respective manpages to a MI directory but still
   install them only on i386 and amd64 (so the manpages
   match the installed modules).

2) Move the i386-only extras from sys/conf/files to
   sys/conf/files.i386.
