Update:
With the use of modern sneakernet (read: a large usb hard drive) I was
able to get an updated /usr/src onto the machine, which now runs
FreeBSD 6.1-stable. New dmesg attached. It still fails to attach the
bge nic, or identify the wlan card / chip.

I also checked the bios. My machine has bios version  1.3230 (date:
05/26/06), which is newer than the one on Acer's site (1.3224).
