Why is this not clear?

    CPU: Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 280 (2392.92-MHz K8-class CPU)

They are 200 series Opteron - you can have only 2 (or 1) in a system.
They are dual-core.

    FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs
     cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID:  0
     cpu1 (AP): APIC ID:  1
     cpu2 (AP): APIC ID:  2
     cpu3 (AP): APIC ID:  3

proper outout given the above 'CPU' ident string.

The above dmesg doesn't tell this to you?
