FWIW, is there any difference between loading acpi.ko from loader.conf
with "device acpi"-less kernel, and having ACPI compiled in?  (I am
interested in both i386 and amd64 cases.)  I normally offload everything
possible to modules (including `mem' and `io') and wonder it is safe
thing to do for `acpi' as well.  Thanks.
