I just cvsup'ed and made world a few hours ago and I've noticed this same
problem. (I also took care to change nlpt to lpt.)

After digging around, I found the problem: lpt.o is linked twice. I
manually edited my /usr/src/sys/compile/xxxx/Makefile, removed the
second reference to lpt.o and rebuilt the kernel... now lpt0 only gets
probed once.

That's the cause of the problem... I have no idea what the solution is. :)
I guess only a config guru can know...
