 NetBSD's documentation mentions a similar issue and their workaround is to  
 enable the NetBSD powerd daemon in rc.conf. Perhaps we can figure out what  
 their powerd daemon is doing so we can have a workaround? We can't run  
 powerd as a domU because it's looking for cpufreq settings that aren't in  
 sysctl.
