No harm done :)

I saw that pci.c was updated today (to version 1.318) and I decided to give it 
a try. As expected, it did not work, so I kept my /usr/src in sync, but 
reverted pci.c to 1.292.2.9 and my system booted fine!

By diff'ing with 1.315 
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c.diff?f=H&r1=text&tr1=1.292.2.9&r2=text&tr2=1.315)  
we can find there's obviously something in the vpd code that my system 
doesn't like, or that the vpd code doesn't like something about my system ;).

Nicolas.
