Hi Nate,

As posted earlier, I'm getting these acpi: bad write
messages spamming my console, with port 0x086 instead of Angka's
0x073.  I don't see 0x086 in the above list, though, so I'm a bit
confused.

I have revision 1.120 of src/sys/dev/acpica/Osd/OsdHardware.c

As detailed here:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2006-April/062245.html
this appeared somewhere between 29 january and 3 april.

Any thoughts?  Am I completely missing where this is coming from?
