Ah, ok.  Updated in HEAD but not STABLE:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/rc.d/power_profile.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.7&r2=text&tr2=1.11

But http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/rc.d/power_profile
indicates that hw.acpi.cpu.cx_lowest should still work anyway, to set
all cpus the same?  What is the error message you're getting?

Cheers, Ian
