It does not seem to be the solution in this case. (Apologies for the delay; this machine turned out to be a bit under-resourced for kernel building, and meanwhile life got in the way.) So, I am back to asking what changes or additions to make in /boot/device.hints. I suppose I need to move either uhci0 or atapci1 off of the (currently shared) irq9 to an unused irq, but I'm not finding it immediately evident how to do that. For the archives, in case the referenced page goes away in the future, it suggests adding options KDB options KDB_UNATTENDED options DDB to the kernel. This is reported to have caused an interrupt storm, involving an atapci controller on an amd64 system, to go away.
