Subject: PC164 doesn't reboot

This problem has been around for months and still persists in
current -CURRENT, so I guess I ought to mention it here:

The PC164 won't reboot(8) with a graphics console.  After FreeBSD
halts I get some kind of register dump and finally

*** Console Stopped because of 660 Machine Check  ***
*** Press HALT Button to return to console !! ***

(HALT doesn't do anything, RESET is required.)

Annoyingly, it reboots just fine with a serial console.
I have no idea where one would even start looking for this sort of
problem.

In case this is related to the graphics card, mine is a

none0@pci0:9:0: class=0x030000 card=0x0100102b chip=0x051a102b rev=0x03
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Matrox'
    device   = 'MGA 1064SG 64-bit graphics chip'
    class    = display
    subclass = VGA
