I see that Nate Lawson committed a patch based on kern/94939 to resolve the reboot problem (rev. 1.220 of src/sys/dev/acpica/acpi.c indicates that the reset fix should be merged to RELENG-6 within a couple of weeks). I thought someone else recently added a patch to resolve the hang on boot without a legacy keyboard controller, but I can't seem to find the current status of the keyboard controller fix.
