I also have the same issue and have not been able to boot any kernels
from recent builds. I know that r194437 works for me
I am also using ZFS on an intel Core2Quad
If I boot a recent kernel I get (copied on to paper and type retyped here)

Every time I try a kernel it always bombs out with cpuid 3 but the hwpmc
line can be anywhere between "hwpmc: TSC/1" and "hwpmc:

I cant even start in to single user mode (get the same error as above.)
If I try to boot with ACPI disabled I get
