Nothing special in /boot/loader.conf, /etc/sysctl.conf, or my kernel. 
It's basically just GENERIC minus devices I don't have, plus the 
following:

options         DDB_CTF
options         VESA
options         GEOM_BDE
device          atapicam 
device          sound
device          snd_hda

Interestingly, I had a runaway intr thing again after watching a flash 
video, but this time it was hdac0, not swi:4.
