This looks like it MIGHT be an APM problem which Peter Wemm found and
fixed in CURRENT about a week ago. As far as I know, this is the first
report of the problem on a STABLE system (if it's the same problem).

Try building a new kernel without APM (and don't load it in
/boot/loader.conf, either). If this allows the system to boot, please
submit a PR so that the few people who understand the locore.s stuff
well enough to have a chance to find it can get it fixed. (I am not
one of those people.)
