This is a known problem and unfortunately will not be fixed until
Adaptec decides to release a new version for FreeBSD.  I would recommend
running the Linux version of aaccli under emulation.  You'll need to
make sure that either the aac_linux.ko driver is loaded or the kernel
is compiled with AAC_COMPAT_LINUX.
