/etc/sysctl.conf gets invoked when you enter in multiuser mode. Are you 
booting multiuser or single user? Maybe you misspelled something in 
/etc/sysctl.conf? Please cat /etc/sysctl.conf

When you put .events=1, .eventmask is updated with the value in .availmask
In your example, eventmask != availmask, so the paste is correct and you 
didn't activate .events

Try logging in in multi user mode and sysctl dev.acpi_ibm.0
Then set .events=1 and redump dev.acpi_ibm.0
