I've just upgraded BIOS to lastest available at support.intel.com
for my motherboard (I was wrong thinking I run latest, there were more fresh).

No change in behavour of fdc(4) in RELENG_6 and in HEAD, they still
probe fdc0 the same way, STABLE's driver still does not work
and CURRENT's works fine.
